How many terms of series 3 + 7 + 11 ____ are Required to get a sum of 1176 ?
|| ✰✰ ANSWER ✰✰ ||
Here, we can see That,
→ First term = a = 3
→ common Difference = d = 7 - 3 = 4 .
→ Total terms = Let n .
→ Total sum = 1176 .
we know That :-
→ sum of n terms of AP = (n/2) [ 2a + (n-1)d ]
Putting all values we get :-
→ 1176 = (n/2) [ 2*3 + (n-1)4 ]
→ 2352 = n [ 6 + 4n - 4 ]
→ 2352 = 4n² + 2n
→ 4n² + 2n - 2352 = 0
→ 2(2n² + n - 1176) = 0
→ 2n² + n - 1176 = 0
Splitting The middle Term now,
→ 2n² - 48n + 49 n - 1176 = 0
→ 2n(n - 24) + 49( n - 24) = 0
→ (2n + 49) ( n - 24) = 0
Putting both Equal to Zero now,
→ (2n + 49) = 0
→ n = (-49)/2
Or,
→ ( n - 24) = 0
→ n = 24
Since, Negative value not possible.
Hence, Required Number of Terms Required To get a sum of 1176 of given Series is 24.

↪First term = a = 3
↪common Difference = D = 7 - 3 = 4
↪Total terms = n
↪Sum = 1176
We know that,
➜ sum of n terms of AP = (n/2) [ 2a + (n-1)d ]
If we put the values here,
↪1176 = (n/2) [ 2 × 3 + (n-1) 4 ]
↪2352 = n [ 6 + 4n - 4 ]
↪2352 = 4n² + 2n
↪4n² + 2n - 2352 = 0
↪2(2n² + n - 1176) = 0
↪2n² + n - 1176 = 0
↪2n² - 48n + 49 n - 1176 = 0
↪2n(n - 24) + 49( n - 24) = 0
↪(2n + 49) ( n - 24) = 0
↪(2n + 49) = 0
↪n = (-49)÷2
↪( n - 24) = 0
↪ n = 24
