hi Divya

This is an AP
there fore here

a = 3 ( First Term )

d = 5 ( 8 - 3 = 5 , common difference)
and nth term = 78 (nth term is denoted by "an")

an = a + (n - 1) d
.78 = 3 + (n - 1) × 5
78 - 3 = ( n - 1) ×5

75/ 5= (n - 1)

15 = ( n - 1)

n = 16

Hence 16th term of the AP will be 78


hope it helps
