Find the sum 4+9+14+...+199 ?
- a = 4 , l = 199 , d = 5
Than, number of terms = 40
Sum of 40 numbers 4060.
We have to find the sum of the series: 4+9+14+...+199
To solve this problem, we can use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic progression. An arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers in which each term is obtained by adding a constant to the preceding term.
Formula to find the sum of an arithmetic progression:
S = n/2[2a+(n-1)d]
Where,
S = Sum of the series
a = First term of the series
d = Common difference between two consecutive terms
n = Number of terms
In this case,
a = 4
d = 5
n = 40
Therefore,
S = 40/2[2*4+(40-1)5]
= 40/2[8+195]
= 40/2[203]
= 40*203/2
= 4060
Hence, the sum of the series 4+9+14+...+199 is 4060.
