112 is the 37th term

Explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence

So, Tn=a+(n1)d
where a is your first term, n is your nth term and d is the difference between 2 adjacent terms

Looking at the sequence,
a=4
d=3

Since you want to find the 37th term, then n=37

Tn=a+(n1)d
T37=4+(371)3
T37=4+36×3
T37=112

a37=112

Explanation:

these are the terms of an arithmetic sequence

the n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

xan=a1+(n1)d

where a1 is the first term and d the common difference

d=74=107=3 and a1=4

a37=4+(36×3)=4+108=112
