for 1st series:
first term is a, common difference is d
sum(n) = (n/2)(2a + d(n-1))
for 2nd series:
first term is b, common difference is e
sum(n) = (n/2)(2b + e(n-1))
(n/2)(2a + d(n-1)) / (n/2)(2b + e(n-1)) = (7n+1)/(4n+27)
(2a + dn - d)/ (2b + en- e) = (7n+1)/(4n+27)
8an + 54a + 4dn^2 + 27dn - 4nd - 27d = 14bn + 7en^2 + 2b + en - e ***
You also know that n ≥ 11, and n must be a whole number
ratio of 11 terms = (a+10d)/(b+10e) **
Does that give you something to play with ?
