Find the sum of all integers between 50 and 500, which are divisible by 7.

उत्तर
In this problem, we need to find the sum of all the multiples of 7 lying between 50 and 500.
So, we know that the first multiple of 7 after 50 is 56 and the last multiple of 7 before 500 is 497.
Also, all these terms will form an A.P. with the common difference of 7.
So here,
First term (a) = 56
Last term (l) = 497
Common difference (d) = 7
So, here the first step is to find the total number of terms. Let us take the number of terms as n.
Now, as we know,
`a-n = a+ (n -1)d`
So, for the last term,
497 = 56 + (n -1)7
497 = 56+ 7n - 7
497 = 49 +7n
497 - 49 = 7n
Further simplifying
448 = 7n
`n = 448/7`
n = 64
Now, using the formula for the sum of n terms,
`S_n = n/2 [2a + (n -1)d]`
For n = 64 we get
`S_n = 64/2 [2(56) + (64 - 1) 7]`
= 32 [112 + (63)7]
= 32(1123 + 441)
= 32(112 + 441)
= 32(553)
= 17696
Therefore the sum of all the multiples of 7 lying betwenn 50 and 500 is `S_n = 17696`

In a school, students thought of planting trees in and around the school to reduce air pollution. It was decided that the number of trees, that each section of each class will plant will be the same as the class, in which they are studying, e.g., a section of class I will plant 1 tree, a section of class II will plant 2 trees, and so on till class XII. There are three sections of each class. How many trees will be planted by the students?
