Given A.P. is3, 8, 13, …, 253
Common difference, d= 5.
Therefore, we can write the given AP in reverse order as;
253, 248, 243, …, 13, 8, 5
Now for the new AP,
first term, a = 253
and common difference, d = 248 − 253 = −5
n = 20
Therefore, using nth term formula, we get,
a20 = a+(20−1)d
a20 = 253+(19)(−5)
a20 = 253−95
a = 158
Therefore, 20th term from the last term of the AP 3, 8, 13, …, 253.is 158.
