Solution:
The formula for nth term of an AP is aₙ = a + (n - 1) d
The given arithmetic progression is 3, 8, 13, 18, ...
First term: a = 3
Second term: a + d = 8
Common difference: d = 8 - 3 = 5
aₙ = a + (n - 1) d
aₙ = 78, n = ?
3 + (n - 1) 5 = 78
5(n - 1) = 78 - 3
n - 1 = 15
n = 16
78 is the 16th term of the given AP.
