the sum of the 1st n elements is 1,3,6,10,15,... it will be a cubic, since it's the sum of n(n+1)/2 for n terms Sum of 1st n triangular numbers is n(n+1)(n+2)/6 sum of 1st 99 elements is thus (99)(100)(101)/6 = 166650 So, the 100th element begins with the number 166651 ...

a) Sum(1 odd numbers) = 1 sum(first 2 odd numbers) = 1+3=4 sum(first 3 odd numbers) = 1+3+5 = 9 mmmhhh? they look like perfect squares sum(first 4 odd numbers) = 1+3+5+7 = 16 appears that sum(n odd numbers) = n^2 so Sum(first 60 odd numbers) = 60^2 = 3600 test it with an ...

Out of the numbers divisible by 3, we picked 4 consecutive numbers. To the sum of these, we added a third of the sum, and then the half of the third of the sum. We got 225. What are those 4 numbers?

math
consecutive numbers are one value apart e.g. 5 6 7 or 123 124 125 if we let the first be x then the second is x+1 and the third is x+2 their sum = x + x+1 + x+2 = 3x +3 = 3(x+1 which means that the sum of any 3 consecutive numbers is always divisible by 3,since 3 is a factor. ...

Short-cut for sum/difference problems: Whenever the sum and difference of two numbers are both given, the bigger number is (sum+difference)/2, and the smaller number is (sum-difference)/2. (45+17)/2=31 (45-17)/2=14 Most of the time these problems can be solved without pen and ...

If the pentagon's boundary does not cross itself, I would use the surveyor's formula: 1. lay out the coordinates in order, repeat the first at the end. A(0,4) B(3,2) C(3,-1) D(-3,-1) E (-3,2) A(0,4) 2. Cross multiply between each successive pair and sum. For A and B, ...
