Problem

If the sum of the first $10$ terms and the sum of the first $100$ terms of a given arithmetic progression are $100$ and $10$, respectively, then the sum of first $110$ terms is:

$\text{(A)} \ 90 \qquad \text{(B)} \ -90 \qquad \text{(C)} \ 110 \qquad \text{(D)} \ -110 \qquad \text{(E)} \ -100$

Solution

$\fbox{}$
