How many JEE Main questions come from Sequences And Series?

Sequences And Series has contributed 200 questions to Joint Entrance Examination (Main) papers between 2016 and 2026 — an average of about 18 questions a year. That count is measured from EByAi’s bank of 55,289 JEE Main questions, not estimated from a syllabus. Every one of the 200 questions carries a written, step-by-step solution, and each is tagged to Sequences And Series within Mathematics, so you can drill this chapter across every year at once instead of hunting through paper PDFs. Practising a chapter’s full PYQ history is the fastest way to learn the patterns examiners reuse.

These are 5 real questions from the bank — exactly as asked, with the answer one tap away. All 200 Sequences And Series questions (with full written solutions) are available in practice.

Question 1 · JEE Main 2026
If the sum of the first four terms of an A.P. is 6 and the sum of its first six terms is 4 , then the sum of its first twelve terms is
1. (A) $-26$
2. (B) $-20$
3. (C) $-24$
4. (D) $-22$
Show answerAnswer
$Answer: (D) -22$
Question 2 · JEE Main 2026
The sum of the first ten terms of an A.P. is 160 and the sum of the first two terms of a G.P. is 8. If the first term of the A.P. is equal to the common ratio of the G.P. and the first term of the G.P. is equal to the common difference of the A.P., then the sum of all possible values of the first term of the G.P. is:
1. (A) $\frac{34}{9}$
2. (B) $\frac{34}{13}$
3. (C) $\frac{32}{9}$
4. (D) $\frac{32}{13}$
Show answerAnswer
$Answer: (A) \frac{34}{9}$
Question 3 · JEE Main 2025
Consider an A. P. of positive integers, whose sum of the first three terms is 54 and the sum of the first twenty terms lies between 1600 and 1800. Then its 11th term is :
1. (A) $108$
2. (B) $90$
3. (C) $122$
4. (D) $84$
Show answerAnswer
$Answer: (B) 90$
Question 4 · JEE Main 2025
If the first term of an A.P. is 3 and the sum of its first four terms is equal to one-fifth of the sum of the next four terms, then the sum of the first 20 terms is equal to
1. (A) $- 120$
2. (B) $- 1200$
3. (C) $- 1080$
4. (D) $- 1020$
Show answerAnswer
$Answer: (C) - 1080$
Question 5 · JEE Main 2025
If the sum of the second, fourth and sixth terms of a G.P. of positive terms is 21 and the sum of its eighth, tenth and twelfth terms is 15309, then the sum of its first nine terms is :
1. (A) $757$
2. (B) $755$
3. (C) $750$
4. (D) $760$
Show answerAnswer
$Answer: (A) 757$
