Find the sum of all odd numbers between 100 and 200.

उत्तर
In this problem, we need to find the sum of all odd numbers lying between 100 and 200.
So, we know that the first odd number after 0 is 101 and the last odd number before 200 is 199.
Also, all these terms will form an A.P. with the common difference of 2.
So here,
First term (a) = 101
Last term (l) = 199
Common difference (d) = 2
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,
`199 = 101 + (n - 1)2`
199 = 101 + 2n - 2
199 = 99 + 2n
199 - 99 = 2n
Further simplifying,
100 = 2n
`n = 100/2`
n = 50
Now, using the formula for the sum of n terms,
`S_n = n/2 [2a + (n -1)d]`
For n = 50 we get
`S_n = 50/2 [2(101) + (50 - 1)2]`
`= 25 [202 + (49)2]`
= 25(202 + 98)
= 25(300)
= 7500
Therefore the sum of all the odd numbers lying between 100 and 200 is `S_n = 7500`
