 answer below it is given that first an119-5n then how came when 5n got transported to other side then 5n119..... Shouldn't it be 5n

A.P = 114,109,104.............

a=114, d= -5

an= a + (n-1) d

now anhas to less than 0; thus an

Thus; 0 114 + (n-1) -5

0 114 -5n +5

0 119 - 5n

5n119

n=24

Thus the 24th term of the A.P is its first negative term
