    In a A.P. of 81 terms, the 4th terms is 10. Then the sum of the series:

    A)  \[10\times 41\]              

    B)  \[\frac{10\times 41}{2}\]       

    C)  \[10\times 81\]                          

    D)  \[41\times 81\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] \[n=81\] \[{{t}_{41}}=a+(n-1).d\] \[10=a+40d\] \[{{S}_{81}}=\frac{n}{2}\left\{ 2a+\left( n-1 \right).d \right\}=n\left\{ 2a+80d \right\}\] \[=\frac{81}{2}\times \left\{ a+40d \right\}=81\times 10.\] Hence, option [c] is correct.
