What is the sum of even numbers from 3 to 20? Here we will show you step-by-step how to calculate the sum of even numbers from 3 to 20.
Step 1) We start by finding the first (F) and last (L) even numbers from 3 to 20. It is easy to do that by simply looking at the numbers. The first even number is 4, and the last even number is 20.
F = 4
L = 20
Step 2) Next, we calculate the total even numbers (T) there are from 3 to 20, using a formula. Here is the formula and the math:
T = (L - F + 2) ÷ 2
T = (20 - 4 + 2) ÷ 2
T = 18 ÷ 2
T = 9
Step 3) Finally, we use the information from Step 1 and Step 2, and another formula, to calculate the sum of even numbers from 3 to 20, like this:
Sum = (T ÷ 2) × (2 × F + (2 × (T - 1))
Sum = (9 ÷ 2) × (2 × 4 + (2 × (9 - 1))
Sum = 4.5 × (8 + 16)
Sum = 4.5 × 24
Sum = 108
Sum of even numbers from 3 to 20 = 108
