Find the 100th term of the arithmetic sequence 1.6,2.3,3

(show the work)

An nth term in arithmetic sequence can be calculated using the following equation:

a (n) = a (1) + (n-1) d

Where a (n) = nth term, a (1) = first term, n = position of a (n), and d = common difference.

In the current task, a (1) = 1.6, n=100, d = 2.3-1.6=3.3-2.3 = 0.7

Therefore

a (100) = 1.6 + (100-1) * 0.7 = 70.9
