For any natural number $k$, let $a_k = 3^k$. The smallest natural number $m$ for which $\{(a_1)^1 \times (a_2)^2 \times \ldots \times (a_{20})^{20}\} < \{a_{21} \times a_{22} \times \ldots \times a_{(20+m)}\}$, is

Consider a sequence of real number $x_1, x_2, x_3, ...$ such that $x_{n+1} = x_n + n - 1$ for all $n \ge 1$. If $x_1 = -1$ then $x_{100}$ is equal to

In an arithmetic progression, if the sum of fourth, seventh and tenth terms is 99, and the sum of the first fourteen terms is 497, then the sum of first five terms is
