Detailed Solution

Concept- Then use the formula for the nth term of the AP given as tn=a+(n-1) d to make an inequality and find the integer value of n.
Now, we divide 500 by 13 to seek out the value of the first term that is divisible by 13. Hence, we have:
50013=38.46
So, the 1st term is obtained as below:
a=39×13 a=507
A progression (AP) is a sequence of numbers whose consecutive terms differ by a constant number. This constant number is named the common ratio.
The formula for the nth term of the AP with the 1st term a and the common difference d is given as follows:
tn=a+(n-1) d Then, we have as follows:
tn1000 507+(n-1) (13) 1000
Simplifying, we have:
507+13n-131000 494+13n1000
Then, we have as follows:
13n1000-494 13n506
Solving for n, we have:
n50613 n38.9
So, the most important integer value for n is 38.
n=38 Hence, the right option is 1.
