Answer
Since, 0.53 - 0.5 = 0.03, 0.56 - 0.53 = 0.03.
Hence, the series is an A.P. with common difference = 0.03 and last term = 1.1.
nth term of an A.P. is given by,
an = a + (n - 1)d
⇒ 1.1 = 0.5 + (n - 1) × 0.03
⇒ 1.1 = 0.5 + 0.03n - 0.03
⇒ 1.1 = 0.47 + 0.03n
⇒ 1.1 - 0.47 = 0.03n
⇒ 0.63 = 0.03n
⇒ n = 21.
Hence, no. terms in the series = 21.
