The average of a non-decreasing sequence of $N$ numbers $a_{1}, a_{2}, \ldots, a_{N}$ is $300$. If $a_{1}$ is replaced by $6 a_{1}$, the new average becomes $400$. Then, the number of possible values of $a_{1}$ is

For a sequence of real numbers $x_1, x_2, ...... x_n$, if $x_1 - x_2 + x_3 - .... + (-1)^{n + 1} x_n = n^2 + 2n$ for all natural numbers n, then the sum $x_{49} + x_{50}$ equals

Let $a_n$ and $b_n$ be two sequences such that $a_n = 13 + 6 (n - 1)$ and $b_n = 15 + 7 (n - 1)$ for all natural numbers $n$. Then, the largest three digit integer that is common to both these sequences, is
