    Find the sum of 20 terms of an AP whose first term is 4and common difference is 3.

    A)  550                             

    B)  650

    C)  750                             

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Here, a = 4, d = 3, n = 20 so, \[{{S}_{20}}=\frac{20}{2}[2\,\,(4)+19\times 3]=10\,\,[8+57]=650\] If first term \[=a\] and last term \[={{a}_{n}}\] are given, then sum of terms of an AP is \[{{S}_{n}}=\frac{n\,\,({{a}_{1}}+{{a}_{n}})}{2}\] where,         n = number of terms.
