In a library (40) books are arranged on the first day and (8) more books each next day. How many books are arranged in (6) days?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 360

The daily numbers of books form an AP: 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80. Here, \(a=40\), \(d=8\), and \(n=6\). Therefore, \(S_6=\frac{6}{2}[2(40)+(6-1)8]=3(120)=360\). Hence, 360 is correct. A value such as 380 results from using the sum formula or the number of terms incorrectly. Exam tip: identify \(a\), \(d\), and \(n\) before applying the AP sum formula.
