A man starts repaying a loan as first instalment of Rs.100. If he increases the instalments by Rs .5 every month, what amount he will pay in 30th instalment?
Given: First installment is Rs. 100 and he increases it by Rs. 5 every month
To find: Total amount in 30th installment i.e. a30
According to question:
A.P. will be 100, 105,……………………
a = 100 and d = 5
Formula used:
an = a + (n – 1)d
⇒ a30 = 100 + (30 – 1)5
⇒ a30 = 100 + (29)5
⇒ a30 = 100 + 145
⇒ a30 = 245
Hence, he will pay Rs. 245 in 30th installment
