The first term of an Arithmetic Progression is 22 and the last term is – 11. If the sum is 66, the number of terms in the sequenceis
-
- 10
- 12
- 9
- 8
- 10
Correct Option: B
Let Number of terms = n
First term (a) = 22
Last term (L) = –11
Sum (S) = 66
∴ S = | (a + L) | |
2 |
⇒ 66 = | (22 - 11) | |
2 |
⇒ 66 = | |
2 |
⇒ 11n = 66 × 2
⇒ n = | = 12 | |
11 |
