An arithmetic progression has first term 6, last term 60, and 10 terms. What is its sum?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 330

The governing concept is the sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic progression. When the first term a, last term l, and number of terms n are known, use Sₙ = n/2(a + l). Here n = 10, a = 6, and l = 60. Substitution gives S₁₀ = 10/2(6 + 60) = 5 × 66 = 330. Therefore option B is correct. The common difference is not needed because both end terms and the number of terms already determine the average term: (6 + 60)/2 = 33, and 10 terms give 10 × 33 = 330. Option A is too small, while C and D arise from incorrect arithmetic or misuse of the formula.
