Let the 1st terms be A and a, and common difference be D and d respectively.

Now, n/2(2A+(n-1)D)/n/2(2a+(n-1)d/) = the given ratio.

Cancelling,n, we get:

(A+(n-1)/2D)/(a+(n-1)/2d) = the ratio.
Put (n-1)/2 = 11 => n-1 = 22 => n=23.

The ratio is: 77/176 = 7/16.



Will nip in at times to solve problems :)
