As we have learnt in

 

Common difference -

The fixed number by which the terms increase or decrease in an A.P.

- wherein

Denoted by d

 

 

a_{1}+a_{3}+a_{5}+........a_{199}=\beta

a_{2}+a_{4}+a_{6}+........a_{200}=\alpha

a_{2}-a_{1}+a_{4}-a_{3}+a_{6}-a_{5}........a_{200}-a_{199}=\alpha-\beta

d+d+d.......d=\alpha -\beta

d=\frac{\alpha -\beta }{100}
