(i) Given, 7, 13, 19, …, 205 is the A.P
Therefore
First term, a = 7
Common difference, d = a2 − a1 = 13 − 7 = 6
Let there are n terms in this A.P.
an = 205
As we know, for an A.P.,
an = a + (n − 1) d
Therefore, 205 = 7 + (n − 1) 6
198 = (n − 1) 6
33 = (n − 1)
n = 34
Therefore, this given series has 34 terms in it.
