The key is to find the first term a(1) and the difference d.

in an arithmetic sequence, the nth term is the first term +(n-1)d
the firs three terms: a(1), a(1)+d, a(1)+2d
the next three terms: a(1)+3d, a(1)+4d, a(1)+5d,
a(1) + a(1)+d +a(1)+2d=108
a(1)+3d + a(1)+4d + a(1)+5d=183

subtract the first equation from the second equation: 9d=75, d=75/9=25/3
Plug d=25/3 in the first equation to find a(1): a(1)=83/3

the 11th term is: a(1)+(25/3)(11-1)=83/3 +250/3=111

Please double check my calculation. <span />

How do u write 4 1/4 in simplest form and not in decimals I haven't learned that yet .
alexandr1967 [171]
It already is in simplest form because the numerator and denonimator don't have a common factor to then divide them by.

What is 19% of 72? I NEED TO KNOW HOW YOU GOT THE ANSWER TO!!
irinina [24]
First you must multiply the number by the percent. (19*27= 513)
Then you divide the answer by 100, or move decimal two places to the left. (513/100= 5.13)
Then round to the nearest whole number (5.13 is approximately 5)
Therefore 19%of 27 = 5
