    The series \[\frac{5}{\sqrt{7}},\frac{6}{\sqrt{7}},\sqrt{7},...\]is:

    A)  HP                                        

    B)  GP

    C)  AP                        

    D)         none of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Given series is \[\frac{5}{\sqrt{7}},\frac{6}{\sqrt{7}},\sqrt{7},...\] Now,     \[{{d}_{1}}=\frac{6}{\sqrt{7}}-\frac{5}{\sqrt{7}},{{d}_{2}}=\sqrt{7}-\frac{6}{\sqrt{7}}\] i.e.,        \[{{d}_{1}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{7}},{{d}_{2}}=\frac{7-6}{\sqrt{7}}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{7}}\] Here,     \[{{d}_{1}}={{d}_{2}}\] Since, the common difference is same, therefore the given series is an AP. Note: (1) In an AP series, the common differences will be same. (2) In a GP series, the common ratios will be same.
