MCQ
Insert 4 numbers between 2 and 22 such that the resulting sequence is an A.P.
  • A
    4,  8, 12,  16
  • B
    5,  9, 13, 17
  • C
    4, 10, 15, 19
  • D
    6, 10, 14, 18

Answer

  1. 6, 10, 14, 18

Solution:

Let A.P. be 2, A1, A2, A3, A4, 22.

⇒ a = 2 and a6 = a + 5d = 22 ⇒ 2 + 5 × d = 22 ⇒  d = 4.

A1 = a2 = a + d = 2 + 4 = 6.

A2 = A1 + d = 6 + 4 = 10.

A3 = 10 + 4 = 14.

A4 = 14 + 4 = 18.
