a = - 4

L = 146

Sn = 7171

=> n/2 ( a + L) = 7171

=> n/2 ( - 4 + 146) = 7171

=> n/2 × 142 = 7171

=> n × 71 = 7171

=> n = 101

Number of terms = 101

Now,

L = a + (n-1)d

=> 146 = - 4 +(101 - 1)d

=> 150 = 100d

=> d = 3/2

Nagavenin: how 101 as come
Nagavenin: plz answer
gaurav2013c: n × 71 = 7171 => n = 7171 / 71 => n = 101
Nagavenin: how 101 its 11 right
gaurav2013c: no its 101
Nagavenin: thats only how
gaurav2013c: what?
Nagavenin: how 101 come if we ÷7171/71
gaurav2013c: check it using calculator

a = - 4

L = 146

Sn = 7171

=> n/2 × 142 = 7171

=> n × 71 = 7171
