Detailed Solution

The given sequence is 1,11,21,31,...

The first term of the sequence is a1=1 and the common difference is d=10

The other sequence is 31,36,41,46,...

The first term of the sequence is A1=31 and the common difference is D=5

1+n-110=31+m-151+10n-10=31+5m-510n-5m=352n-m=7

find the value of either n or m such that 2n-m=7 and n,m100

here m must be odd number

suppose that m=99

        2n=7+99 =106n=53

Hence hte largest common term is 53rd term of the first sequence and 99th term of the second sequence

hence, t53=1+5210=521

Therefore, the common term in both sequences is 521
