\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "first term a = 26
\n" ); document.write( "difference = 5 ( between consecutive rows)
\n" ); document.write( "number of rows =40\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Total seats = Sn sum of all terms\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Use formula for sum of n terms\r
