Let the first term and the common difference of the AP be a and d respectively.
Given that, a17 = a10+7 
{tex} \Rightarrow {/tex} a + (17 - 1) d = a + (10 - 1)d + 7 {tex}\because {/tex}an = a +(n - 1)d
{tex} \Rightarrow {/tex} a + 16d = a + 9d + 7
{tex} \Rightarrow {/tex} 16d - 9d = 7
{tex} \Rightarrow {/tex} 7d = 7
{tex} \Rightarrow d = \frac{7}{7} = 1{/tex}
Hence, the common difference is 1.
