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

Answer:

The series of integers divisible by 7 between 50 and 500 are 56, 63, 70, …, 497

Number of terms be ‘n’

a = 56, d = 63-56 = 7, an = 497

an = a + (n-1)d

497 = 56 + (n-1)7

497 = 56 + 7n – 7

7n = 497 – 56 + 7

7n = 448

n = 448/7

n = 64

By using the formula,

Sum of n terms,

S = n/2 [a + l]

S = 64/2 [56 + 497]

S = 32 [553]

S = 17696

∴ The sum of all integers between 50 and 500 which are divisible by 7 is 17696.
