उत्तर

The odd numbers between 1 to 50 are

1, 3, 5, ......, 49

The above sequence is an A.P.

∴ a = 1

∴ d = 5 – 3 = 2

Let the number of terms in the A.P. be n.

Then, tn = 49

Since tn = a + (n – 1)d,

49 = 1 + (n – 1)(2)

∴ 49 = 1 + 2n – 2

∴ 49 = 2n - 1

∴ 49 + 1 = 2n

∴ n =`50/2`

∴ n = 25

Now, Sn = `"n"/2 ("t"_1 + "t"_"n")`

∴ S25 = `25/2 (1 + 49)`

= 12.5 × 50

= 625

∴ The sum of odd numbers between 1 to 50 is 625.
