Let a and d be the first term and common diff for the A.P.

acc to qn

[a + [(m + 1) - 1]d = 2[a + (n + 1) - 1]d

so

a + md = 2a + 2nd

so

a = (m - 2n)d...(i)

now,

3m+1 th term

=a + [(3m + 1) - 1]d

=a + 3md...

=4md-2nd     (ii)   using(I)

twice the (m + n + 1)th term

=2{[a + (m + n + 1) - 1]d}

=2[a + (m + n)d]

=2[(m - 2n)d + (m + n)d]

=4md - 2nd..(iii)

from (ii) and (iii) the result is proved.
