Question :- The number of terms in the AP 2, 5, 8, …………., 59 is ………….
1) 17
2) 19
3) 20
4) 25
Solution :-
Let us assume that, the total terms in the AP is n .
we have given that,
- First term of AP = a = 2
- Common difference = d = second term - first term = 5 - 2 = 3
- Last term = an = 59 .
- total terms = n .
we know that,
- an = a + (n - 1)d .
putting all values we get,
→ 59 = 2 + (n - 1)3
→ 59 = 2 + 3n - 3
→ 59 = 3n - 1
→ 59 + 1 = 3n
→ 3n = 60
→ n = 20 (Option 3) (Ans.)
Hence, The number of terms in the given AP is 20.
