Ravi saves 20 rupees on the first day and 5 rupees more each next day. What will be his total saving in 10 days?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 425 rupees

The governing concept is the sum of the first n terms of an arithmetic progression. Ravi’s daily savings are 20, 25, 30, and so on, so the first term is a = 20, the common difference is d = 5, and n = 10. The tenth saving is a + 9d = 20 + 45 = 65 rupees. Hence the total is Sₙ = n/2[2a + (n − 1)d] = 10/2[40 + 45] = 5 × 85 = 425 rupees. Therefore option B is correct. The other choices can result from using an incorrect number of increases, confusing the tenth-day amount with the total, or adding the terms inaccurately. The fixed difference confirms that an AP-sum method is appropriate.
