Question

the sum of successors of the first five natural numbers is a)5. b)20. c)25. d)120​

Answer 1

Answer:

25 is the correct answer for this....

Answer 2

Answer:

Concept:

Sum of successors of the first five natural number is $20$.

Successors:

• The successor of a particular number is the one that comes right after it.
• A whole number's successor is the result of adding one to it.
• It is obvious that the successor of 21 is 22, successor of 11 is 12, successor of 53 is 54 and so on.

Natural Numbers:

• All positive numbers from 1 to infinity are considered natural numbers.
• Counting numbers are another name for natural numbers.
• There are no negative or zero numbers in them.

Given:

• First five natural numbers.

To Find:

• Successors of first five natural numbers.
• Sum of successors of the first five natural numbers.

Solution:

First five natural numbers are $1, 2, 3, 4$ and $5$.

Lets find the successors of first five natural numbers,

The successor $1$ of is $2$.

The successor $2$ of is $3$.

The successor $3$ of is $4$.

The successor $4$ of is $5$.

The successor $5$ of is $6$.

∴ The successors of first five natural numbers are $2, 3, 4, 5$ and $6$.

Then, the sum of successors of the first five natural number is,

⇒  $2+3+4+5+6$

⇒  $20$

∴ Sum of successors of the first five natural number is $20$.
