Q1: The sum of how many terms of the series 6 + 12 + 18 + 24 + ... is 1800 ?

A 16

B 24

C 20

D 18

E 22

ANS:B - 24

This is an A.P. in which a = 6, d = 6 and Sn = 1800

Then, n [2a + (n - 1)d] = 1800
2
  n [2 x 6 + (n - 1) x 6] = 1800
2
 3n (n + 1) = 1800  n(n + 1) = 600  n2 + n - 600 = 0  n2 + 25n - 24n - 600 = 0  n(n + 25) - 24(n + 25) = 0  (n + 25)(n - 24) = 0  n = 24 Number of terms = 24.
