An arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers in which the difference between any two consecutive terms is constant. In this article, we will learn how to calculate the nth term of an arithmetic sequence using our free online calculator
The formula for calculating the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is an = a1 + (n-1)d, where an is the nth term, a1 is the first term, n is the term number, and d is the common difference
an = a1 + (n-1)d
For example, if the first term (a1) is 2, the common difference (d) is 3, and the term number (n) is 10, the nth term (an) would be 2 + (10-1)*3 = 29
To use our arithmetic sequence calculator, simply enter the first term (a1), the common difference (d), and the term number (n) into the input fields, and the calculator will calculate the nth term for you
The formula is an = a1 + (n-1)d, where an is the nth term, a1 is the first term, n is the term number, and d is the common difference
