Detailed Solution

Given A.P. is 6,13,20,.,216 .
So, first term: t 1 =6 , second term: t 2 =13 .  d= t 2 t 1 d=136 =7
Let 216 be the nth term of A.P. and apply the formula for the nth term of A.P.
t n =a+(n1)d 216=6+(n1)×7 2166=7n7 210=7n7 n= 217 7 n=31 Thus, there are 31 terms in A.P.
Since we know that, if n is odd then then middle term is,
n+1 2 th term 
Applying the formula and determining the middle term of the A.P.:
= 31+1 2  term  = 32 2 th   term  = 16 th   term 
Applying formula of n th term and determining 16th term:
t 16 =6+(161)×7 t 16 =6+15×7 =6+105 =111 Therefore, the middle term of A.P. is 111.
Thus, the given statement is true.
Hence, option (1) is correct.
