The coefficient of $${x^9}$$ in the expansion of (1 + x) (1 + $${x^2)}$$ (1 + $${x^3}$$) ....$$(1 + {x^{100}})$$ is

Let a, b, c be positive integers such that $${b \over a}$$ is an integer. If a, b, c are in geometric progression and the arithmetic mean of a, b, c is b + 2, then the value of $${{{a^2} + a - 14} \over {a + 1}}$$ is

A pack contains $$n$$ cards numbered from $$1$$ to $$n.$$ Two consecutive numbered cards are removed from the pack and the sum of the numbers on the remaining cards is $$1224.$$ If the smaller of the numbers on the removed cards is $$k,$$ then $$k-20=$$

Let $${{a_1}}$$, $${{a_2}}$$, $${{a_3}}$$........ $${{a_{100}}}$$ be an arithmetic progression with $${{a_1}}$$ = 3 and $${S_p} = \sum\limits_{i = 1}^p {{a_i},1 \le } \,p\, \le 100$$. For any integer n with $$1\,\, \le \,n\, \le 20$$, let m = 5n. If $${{{S_m}} \over {{S_n}}}$$ does not depend on n, then $${a_{2\,}}$$ is
