Find the sum of all odd numbers between 0 and 50.
Answers
Answer:
625
Step-by-step explanation:
Odd number between 0 and 50 are 1,3,5,7,9.....49
l=a+(n-1)d
49=1+(n-1)2
2n-2=48
2n=50
n=50/2
n=25
Sn=n/2(a+l)
=25/2(1+49)
=25/2(50)
=25(25)
=625.
Therefore the sum of all odd numbers between 0 and 50 is 625.
Odd numbers are classified as any number that is not divisible by two. In other terms, a number in the form of 2k+1, where k ∈ integers(Z) are called odd numbers. The sum of two odd numbers is always even.
The list of odd numbers between 0 and 50 are
1,3, 5, 7, 9, ….49.
To find the sum of all the odd numbers between 0 – 50 we use the theory of arithmetic progression.
a = 1
d = 2
n = ?
an = 49
an = a + (n-1)d
49 = 1 + (n – 1) × 2
49 = 1 + 2n – 2
49 = 2n -1
50 = 2n
n = 25
The sum of all odd numbers between 0 and 50 can be calculated using the formula
Sn = n/2 (a +an)
Sn = 25/2 (1 + 49)
Sn = 25/2 (50)
Sn=625
