Find the sum of all even integers between 101 and 999
Find the sum of all even integers between 101 and 999

Answer:

All even integers will have a common difference of 2.

AP is 102, 104, 106, …, 998

a = 102, d = 104 – 102 = 2, an = 998

By using the formula,

an = a + (n-1)d

998 = 102 + (n-1)2

998 = 102 + 2n – 2

2n = 998 – 102 + 2

2n = 898

n = 898/2

n = 449

By using the formula,

Sum of n terms,

S = n/2 [a + l]

S = 449/2 [102 + 998]

S = 449/2 [1100]

S = 449 [550]

S = 246950

∴ The sum of all even integers between 101 and 999 is 246950.
