From the given series:
15/100,3/10,45/100,6/10,75/100
The common difference=3/10-15/100=3/20
Th e first term 15/100
thus the series is an arithmetic series which follows a general explicit formula of:
an=a+(n-1)d
thus plugging in our values,we obtain explicit formula for the series as:
an=15/100+(n-1)3/20
an=3/20n
Thus the answer is: 3/20n
