The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the ratio of the 11th terms of two arithmetic progressions (APs) given the ratio of their sums of n terms. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Sum of n Terms of an AP**: The sum of the first n terms \( S_n \) of an arithmetic progression can be expressed as: \[ S_n = \frac{n}{2} \left(2A + (n - 1)D\right) \] where \( A \) is the first term and \( D \) is the common difference. 2. **Setting Up the Given Ratio**: We are given that the ratio of the sums of n terms of two APs is: \[ \frac{S_{n1}}{S_{n2}} = \frac{7n + 1}{4n + 27} \] For the first AP, let the first term be \( A_1 \) and the common difference be \( D_1 \). For the second AP, let the first term be \( A_2 \) and the common difference be \( D_2 \). 3. **Expressing the Sums**: The sums for the two APs can be expressed as: \[ S_{n1} = \frac{n}{2} \left(2A_1 + (n - 1)D_1\right) \] \[ S_{n2} = \frac{n}{2} \left(2A_2 + (n - 1)D_2\right) \] Thus, the ratio becomes: \[ \frac{2A_1 + (n - 1)D_1}{2A_2 + (n - 1)D_2} = \frac{7n + 1}{4n + 27} \] 4. **Cross Multiplying**: Cross-multiplying gives us: \[ (2A_1 + (n - 1)D_1)(4n + 27) = (2A_2 + (n - 1)D_2)(7n + 1) \] 5. **Finding the 11th Term**: The 11th term of the first AP is given by: \[ T_{11,1} = A_1 + 10D_1 \] The 11th term of the second AP is: \[ T_{11,2} = A_2 + 10D_2 \] We need to find the ratio: \[ \frac{T_{11,1}}{T_{11,2}} = \frac{A_1 + 10D_1}{A_2 + 10D_2} \] 6. **Using the Value of n**: To find the specific values, we need to set \( n = 21 \) (since \( n - 1 = 20 \)). Substituting \( n = 21 \) into the ratio of sums gives: \[ \frac{S_{21,1}}{S_{21,2}} = \frac{7(21) + 1}{4(21) + 27} = \frac{148}{111} \] 7. **Calculating the Ratio of 11th Terms**: Now we can substitute \( n = 21 \) into our earlier derived equation for the sums: \[ \frac{(2A_1 + 20D_1)}{(2A_2 + 20D_2)} = \frac{148}{111} \] This gives us the ratio of the terms. 8. **Final Ratio**: The ratio of the 11th terms can be calculated as: \[ \frac{A_1 + 10D_1}{A_2 + 10D_2} = \frac{148}{111} \] ### Conclusion: Thus, the ratio of the 11th terms of the two APs is: \[ \frac{148}{111} \]

To solve the problem, we need to find the ratio of the 11th terms of two arithmetic progressions (APs) given the ratio of their sums of n terms. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Sum of n Terms of an AP**: The sum of the first n terms \( S_n \) of an arithmetic progression can be expressed as: \[ S_n = \frac{n}{2} \left(2A + (n - 1)D\right) ...
