Arithmetic progression


By writing here i am refreshing my learning as well along with sharing with you a learning. Till now I have shared with you learning on various math topics and I am enjoying this exercise as through this I am not only helping you but also refreshing my own knowledge. Today we will move on with arithmetic progression.

When Quantities increase or decrease with a common difference we say it being in an arithmetic progression.

Further arithmetic mean is a term related to arithmetic progression. Suppose a,x,b is in arithmetic progression, then a is the arithmetic mean between the two extremes a and b.

Similarly we also have geometric progression and geometric mean, which we will discuss some other day. Till then enjoy arithmetic progression.
