the sum of all the two digit odd numbers is
Answers
Solution :
The series of two digit odd numbers is
11 + 13 + 15 + ... + 97 + 99
First term (a₁) = 11
Common difference (d) = 2
Let, the nth term (aₙ) = 99
⇒ a₁ + (n - 1) d = 99
⇒ 11 + (n - 1) * 2 = 99
⇒ 11 + 2n - 2 = 99
⇒ 2n + 9 = 99
⇒ 2n = 99 - 9 = 90
⇒ n = 45
Thus, there are 45 odd numbers in two digits
Hence, the required sum
= (a₁ + aₙ)
= (11 + 99)
=
= 45 * 55
= 2475
Answer: 2475
Step-by-step explanation:
Odd numbers having two digits are,
11 , 13 , 15 , 17 ......................97 , 99
We have to find,
S = 11 + 13 + 15 + 17 ........... + 97 + 99
This series is an AP, Having,
First term (a) = 11
Last term (l ) = 99
Common Difference(d) = 13 - 11 = 15 - 13 . .... ... = 2
If there are n terms in the series, Then,
l = a + (n - 1)d
99 = 11 + (n - 1)2
99 - 11 = 2(n - 1)
88 = 2(n - 1)
88/2 = n - 1
44 = n - 1
n = 44 + 1
n = 45
Now,
We know that,
S = n/2{a + l}
S = 45/2( 11 + 99)
S = 45/2(110)
S = 45 × 55
S = 2475
