a6 = 19

a + 5d = 19 ..... ( i ).

a17 = 41

a + 16d = 41. . ... ( ii )


Sub ( ii ) from ( i )

a + 5d - ( a + 16d ) = 19 - 41

a + 5d - a - 16d = - 22

- 11d = - 22

d = 2

Putting in ( i )

a + 5d = 16

a + 10 = 16

a = 6

To find 40th term

a40 = a + 39d

a40 = 6 + 39 × 2

a40 = 6 + 78

a40 = 84
