Does anyone know what 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 is because I keep getting 32 1/2, but the answer is 38 1/2? If you know, please explain.

These steps may help you out!

8 1/2 = 17/2

4 1/2 = 9/2

To get this you do⬆8(2) =16 + 1 = 17/2 ; 4(2) = 8 + 1 = 9/2

Change the problem to:

17/2 (9/2)

17(9)/2(2) = ?

So, 17(9) / 2(2) = 153 / 4

153 / 4 as a mixed fraction/number: 38 1/4

First 100 terms of the following sequence 3 ,7 ,11

Sveta_85 [38]

Given that $a_1 = 3, d = 4$

Find the nth term:

$a_n = 3 + 4(n - 1)$

$a_n = 3 + 4n - 4$

$a_n = 4n - 1$

Find the 100th term:

$a_{100} = 4(100) - 1 = 399$

Find the Sum:

$\text{Sum} = 100(\dfrac{a_1 + a_{100}}{2} )= 100 (\dfrac{3 + 399}{2}) = 20100$
