What is the sum of odd numbers from 124 to 155? Here we will show you step-by-step how to calculate the sum of odd numbers from 124 to 155.
Step 1) We start by finding the first (F) and last (L) odd numbers from 124 to 155. It is easy to do that by simply looking at the numbers. The first odd number is 125, and the last odd number is 155.
F = 125
L = 155
Step 2) Next, we calculate the total odd numbers (T) there are from 124 to 155, using a formula. Here is the formula and the math:
T = (L - F + 2) ÷ 2
T = (155 - 125 + 2) ÷ 2
T = 32 ÷ 2
T = 16
Step 3) Finally, we use the information from Step 1 and Step 2, and another formula, to calculate the sum of odd numbers from 124 to 155, like this:
Sum = (T ÷ 2) × (2 × F + (2 × (T - 1))
Sum = (16 ÷ 2) × (2 × 125 + (2 × (16 - 1))
Sum = 8 × (250 + 30)
Sum = 8 × 280
Sum = 2240
Sum of odd numbers from 124 to 155 = 2240
