If a constant term is added to or subtracted from, each term of an A.P. then the resulting sequence, is also an A.P. with the same common difference., . If each term of agiven A.P. is multiplied or divided, by a non-zero constant K, then the resulting sequence, is also an A.P. with common difference Kd or, respectively.
