Using the formula for the nth term of an arithemic series,what is the 101st term?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The nth term = (the first term)+(n-1)(difference between two consecutive terms)
101st term = (first term)+100(difference between two consecutive terms)
The is usually written as a(101)=a(1)+100d
