| Question : |
| In
what way does Arithmetic Sequence differ from Arithmetic Series
? |
Answer : |
|
Arithmetic sequence is a sequence of numbers that has a constant difference between every two consecutive terms.
|
|
The Arithmetic Series is actually the unevaluated sum of terms of an arithmetic sequence.
|
|
For Example,
|
|
The sequence 5, 11, 17, 23, 29, 35, . . . is an arithmetic sequence,
because the same number 6 is added to each term of the sequence to get the succeeding term.
Whereas 5 + 11 + 17 + 23 + 29 + 35 is the corresponding arithmetic series.
