in a school, sudent t hought to planting trees in and around the school to reduce air pollution.It was decided that the numder of trees, that ech section of class will plant, will be the same as the class in which they are studying, e.g., a section of each class 1 will plant 1 tree, a section of class 2 will plant 2 trees and so on till class 12. There are sections of each class. How many trees will be planted by the student

It can be observed that the number of trees planted by the students is in an AP.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5………………..12

First term, a = 1

Common difference, d = 2 − 1 = 1

= 6 (2 + 11)

= 6 (13)

= 78

Therefore, number of trees planted by 1 section of the classes = 78

Number of trees planted by 3 sections of the classes = 3 * 78 = 234

Therefore, 234 trees will be planted by the students.
