Quick Reference (1)
Arithmetic and geometric progressionsArithmetic and geometric progressions are particular types of sequences of numbers which occur frequently in business calculations. This leaflet explains these terms, and shows how the sums of these sequences can be found.
Teach Yourself (1)
Arithmetic and Geometric ProgressionsThis unit introduces sequences and series, and gives some simple examples
of each. It also explores particular types of sequence known as arithmetic
progressions (APs) and geometric progressions (GPs), and the corresponding
series.
