QUESTION :

The 20th term from the end of 86,91,96........221 is ......

ANSWER :

The 20th term from the end in the above series is 126.

SOLUTION :

$\tt{\red{\leadsto{Given \::- }}} \\ \\</p><p></p><p><em>Consider</em><em> </em><em>\</em><em> </em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>\</em><em> </em><em> </em><em>reverse</em><em> </em><em>\</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em> </em><em>\</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>\</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em>bove</em><em> </em><em>\</em><em> </em><em>series</em><em>.</em><em> </em>$

=> New Seríes :

221 , 216, ....... , 86

a = 221

=> d = 91 - 86 = 5 { New D = -5 as the series is reversed... }

$\tt{\blue{\leadsto{Formulae \: Used \::- }}}$

$\tt{\purple{\mapsto{ a_{n} = a + (n-1) d }}}$

$\tt{\green{\implies{a_{20} = 221 - 19 \times 5 = 221 - 95 = 126}}}..........(A)$
