What is an Arithmetic Progression?
An Arithmetic Progression or simply AP is a sequence of numbers such that successive terms are obtained by adding a constant number to the first term. That fixed number is called the common difference of the Arithmetic Progression. For example, the sequence 2, 5, 8, 11, 14,... is an Arithmetic Progression with first term is 2 and common difference is 3. An AP is a convergent sequence if and only if the common difference is 0, otherwise an AP is always divergent.
How to Calculate First Term of Arithmetic Progression?
First Term of Arithmetic Progression calculator uses First Term of Progression = Nth Term of Progression-((Index N of Progression-1)*Common Difference of Progression) to calculate the First Term of Progression, The First Term of Arithmetic Progression formula is defined as the term at which the given Arithmetic Progression starts. First Term of Progression is denoted by a symbol.
How to calculate First Term of Arithmetic Progression using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for First Term of Arithmetic Progression, enter Nth Term of Progression (Tn), Index N of Progression (n) & Common Difference of Progression (d) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the First Term of Arithmetic Progression calculation can be explained with given input values -> 1355 = 60-((6-1)*4).
