Given :

There are 199 cows line up in the barn and he begins milking them.

The first cow gives 4 pints of milk. The next cow gives 5 pints of milk. The next gives 6 pints, and so on, increasing by 1 pint each cow.

pints of milk is increasing 1 by a sequence

4,5,6,7 ......... and so on

when n=1 , the cow given 4 pints of milk

The sequence is arithmetic

nth cow is 199. Lets find out pints of milk when n=199

apply nth formula of arithmetic

[tex]T_n = T_1 + (n-1) d\\[/tex]

n=199

difference d=1

T1=4

Substitute all the values

[tex]T_n = T_1 + (n-1) d\\\\\\T_{199}=4+(199-1)1\\T_{199}=4+198\\T_{199}=202[/tex]

So, the last cow gives 202 pints of milk
