If (a_n=6n+q) and (a_{5n}-a_n=216), what is the value of (n)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: \(9\)

Given \(a_n=6n+q\), we get \(a_{5n}=6(5n)+q=30n+q\). Hence, \(a_{5n}-a_n=(30n+q)-(6n+q)=24n\). Now \(24n=216\), so \(n=216/24=9\). Therefore, the correct option is \(9\). The term \(q\) cancels because it occurs in both terms. Exam tip: In such questions, first write \(a_{5n}\) explicitly and then subtract \(a_n\).
