the sum of first 50multiples of 5 is
Answers
Answer:
Now the highest multiple of 3 less than 50 is 48 (hope you get it).
Now we have to calculate the sum of 3 + 6+……+48
Now we will first calculate number of terms on this A.P.
Now we know that
Last term = first term +(number of terms -1) * common difference
=> 48 = 3 + (n-1)*3
=> 45=(n-1)*3
=> 45/3 = n-1
=> 15 = n-1 => n= 16
Now sum in A.P. is calculated as
Sum = (number of terms/2)*(first term + last term)
=> Sum = (16/2)*(3 +48)
=> Sum = 8*51= 408
So the sum of all positive multiple of 3 less than 50 is 408 .Now the highest multiple of 3 less than 50 is 48 (hope you get it).
