Find the nth term of the AP 1, , ….

To Find: nth term of the AP


Given: The series is 1, , , , …


a1=1, a2= and d= –1=


(Where a=a1 is first term, a2 is second term, an is nth term and d is common difference of given AP)


Formula Used: an = a + (n - 1)d


an= a1 + (n - 1)( ) = 1– () = =()


So the nth term of AP is equal to ()
