Sequences And Series is a Class 11 chapter in the Mathematics section of the MHT CET for candidates who are preparing for the PCM (Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics).

The key topics covered in Sequences And Series PYQs are:

  • Geometric progression: terms and sum
  • Arithmetic progression conditions
  • Sum of an infinite GP
  • Recurring decimal as a rational number
  • Sum of special series

Practising Sequences And Series MHT CET PYQ helps candidates to understand question pattern, improve calculation speed, and identify concepts which were asked in previous exams.

Based on chapter-wise analysis of the MHT CET Mathematics paper, you can get less than 1 mark per paper by covering Sequences And Series. The chapter recorded 11 questions across the 80 shifts in the data, and none of them came in the 2025 and 2026 papers.

Question Style in MHT CET Sequences And Series PYQs

Every question in this PDF is a single-correct MCQ. Most are on the terms or the sum of a GP or an AP.

Question StyleWhat it Tests
GP and AP conditionsThe relation between x, y and z when three quantities are in G.P. and their reciprocals are in A.P.
Infinite GPThe common ratio when the sum of an infinite GP is 9 and the sum of its first two terms is 5
Terms of a GPThe relation when three numbers are the pth, qth and rth terms of a GP
Special seriesThe sum of the first 10 terms of the series 9 + 99 + 999 + …
Recurring decimalsThe rational form of a recurring decimal number

How to Use the Sequences And Series PYQ PDF for MHT CET

  • Start with the newest papers in the PDF, 2023 first, because the chapter had no question in 2025 and 2026.
  • Learn the nth term and the sum formulas for an AP and a GP, and the sum of an infinite GP when |r| < 1.
  • For series such as 9 + 99 + 999, write each term as a power of 10 minus 1.
  • Solve year-wise PYQs by timing yourself, as time management is crucial.
  • Re-attempt only the questions you got wrong, and note which formula or step you missed.
