Given:

The number of seats in the first row is <em>a</em>₁ = 12.

The series of the increasing number of seats is 12, 14, 16......

The objective is to find the total number of seats in the first 12 rows.

Explanation:

The difference between the number of seats in each row can be calculated by the difference between the successive terms of the series.

\begin{gathered} d=14-12=2 \\ d=16-14=2 \end{gathered}

The number of rows to be calculated is <em>n</em> = 12.

To find the number of seats:

The number of seats presents in the first 12 rows can be calculated as,

S_n=\frac{n}{2}\lbrack2a_1+(n-1)d\rbrack

On plugging the obtained values in the above equation,

\begin{gathered} S_{12}=\frac{12}{2}\lbrack2(12)+(12-1)2\rbrack \\ =6\lbrack24+11(2)\rbrack \\ =6(46) \\ =276 \end{gathered}

Hence, the total number of seats in the first 12 rows is 276.
