    📖 Beginner's guideHow to Find the nth Term of an Arithmetic SequenceLearn how to find any term of an arithmetic sequence with aₙ = a + (n - 1)d, explained simply with a real example and a free step-by-step calculator.

    Worked Example: Arithmetic Progression - nth Term

    Given:

    • a = 2
    • d = 3
    • n = 10
    1. aₙ = a + (n - 1)d
    2. a₁₀ = 2 + (10 - 1)(3)
    3. a₁₀ = 2 + 27
    4. a₁₀ = 29

    Answer: 29
