Arithmetic Progression Worksheet for Olympiad
How to solve it (Same step every time): In an AP the gap (common difference d) is always the same. nth term = a + (n − 1) × d, where a is the first term. Sum of n terms = n × (first + last) ÷ 2; so 1 + 2 + … + n = n × (n + 1) ÷ 2, and the first n odd numbers add up to n × n.
