Answer 2

The fourth term of the arithmetic series is 38.

Given that, the first number in arithmetic series (a)=8 and common difference (d) =10.

What is the nth term of the arithmetic series?

The nth term of the arithmetic series is $a_{n} =a+(n-1) \times d$.

Now, the fourth term= $a_{4} =8+(4-1) \times 10$

=8+30=38

Therefore, the fourth term of the arithmetic series is 38.
