If the sum of the first four terms of an A.P. is $6$ and the sum of its first six terms is $4$, then the sum of its first twelve terms is

Solution

$\frac{4}{2}(2a + 3d) = 6 \Rightarrow 2a + 3d = 3 \quad ...(1)$

Sum of first $6$ terms $S_6 = 4$

$\frac{6}{2}(2a + 5d) = 4 \Rightarrow 2a + 5d = \frac{4}{3} \quad ...(2)$

(2) – (1)

$(2a + 5d) - (2a + 3d) = \frac{4}{3} - 3$

$\Rightarrow 2d = -\frac{5}{3} \Rightarrow d = -\frac{5}{6}$

$2a + 3\left(-\frac{5}{6}\right) = 3 \Rightarrow 2a = \frac{11}{2} \Rightarrow a = \frac{11}{4}$

$S_{12} = \frac{12}{2}\left(2a + 11d\right)$

$= 6\left(\frac{11}{2} + 11\left(-\frac{5}{6}\right)\right)$

$= 6\left(\frac{33 - 55}{6}\right) = -22$
