Explanation:

To find the Tth term of an arithmetic progression, you should use the formula: Tn: a + (n-1)d, whereby 'a' is the first term, you have to find 'n' and 'd' is the difference between the first 2 numbers to find out by how much the arithmetic progression is increasing or decreasing. Hence, 29/30 minus 4/5 equals to 1/6. 'a' is 4/5 and 'd' is 1/6.

Use the above formula by replace a and d then you'll get the answer. Hope this helps.
