What is the sum of the first (10) terms of the arithmetic progression (6,12,18,\ldots)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (330)

The direct answer is C: 330. The AP is 6, 12, 18, ..., so the first term is \(a=6\), the common difference is \(d=6\), and the number of terms is \(n=10\). The tenth term is \(a_{10}=a+9d=6+9(6)=60\). Now use the sum formula \(S_n=\frac n2[2a+(n-1)d]\): \(S_{10}=\frac{10}{2}[2(6)+9(6)]=5(12+54)=5\times66=330\). Option A, 300, is too small and does not use the correct final term. Option B, 320, is also not the result of the AP sum. Option C, 330, is correct. Option D, 360, is too large; it can arise from an incorrect average or term count. A quick check is first term plus last term, divided by 2: average \((6+60)/2=33\), then \(33\times10=330\).
