- Find the sum of all consecutive numbers from 1 to 15
Solution:
15 x next number - 16 then divide by 2
15 x 16 = 240 / 2 = 120
- Find the sum of all consecutive numbers from 1 to 100
Solution:
100 x 101 = 10,100 / 2 = 5,050
- Find the sum of all odd consecutive numbers from 1 TO 20
get half of 20 which is 10 then square it = 100
- Find the sum of all odd consecutive numbers from 1 TO 60
get half of 60 which is 30 then square it = 900
- Find the sum of all EVEN consecutive numbers starting from 2 to 35
35 is not even so need to bring it down to 34 then divide by 2 = 17 EVEN CONSECUTIVE NO. Then multiply 17 by next number 18
17 x 18 = 306
- Find the sum of all EVEN consecutive numbers starting from 2 to 58
SINCE 58 is even then divide by 2 = 29
then multiply 29 to the next number which is 30 = 870
- Find the 12 consecutive EVEN numbers whose sum is 468
12/468 = 39 (odd put in between of 38 and 40 above)
28 30 32 34 36 38 40 42 44 46 48 50
