Two APs have the same common difference. The difference between their 100th terms is 100, what is the difference between their 1000th terms?


Given that the 2 AP series has same common difference (d)

Let x, x+d, x+2d,…. X+(n-1)d &


y, y+d, y+2d,…..y+(n-1)d are the two A.P series


given that the difference between their 100th terms is 100


that is,


x+(100-1)d – (y+(100-1)d) = 100


x-y = 100


The difference between their 1000th term is


= x+(1000-1)d –(y+(1000-1)d)


= x-y


We know that value from previous equation


= 100


The difference between their 1000th terms is 100
