A student solves (18) questions on the first day and (4) more questions each day. On which day will he solve (102) questions?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 22nd day

The number of questions solved each day forms an AP with first term \(a=18\) and common difference \(d=4\). The number solved on the \(n\)th day is \(a_n=a+(n-1)d\). Thus, \(102=18+(n-1)4\), so \(84=4(n-1)\) and \(n-1=21\). Hence, \(n=22\). On the 21st day, the student solves 98 questions, so 102 questions are solved on the 22nd day. Exam tip: identify whether the question asks for a term of the AP or for the total sum.
