What is the sum of odd numbers from 4 to 5? Here we will show you step-by-step how to calculate the sum of odd numbers from 4 to 5.
Step 1) We start by finding the first (F) and last (L) odd numbers from 4 to 5. It is easy to do that by simply looking at the numbers. The first odd number is 5, and the last odd number is 5.
F = 5
L = 5
Step 2) Next, we calculate the total odd numbers (T) there are from 4 to 5, using a formula. Here is the formula and the math:
T = (L - F + 2) ÷ 2
T = (5 - 5 + 2) ÷ 2
T = 2 ÷ 2
T = 1
Step 3) Finally, we use the information from Step 1 and Step 2, and another formula, to calculate the sum of odd numbers from 4 to 5, like this:
Sum = (T ÷ 2) × (2 × F + (2 × (T - 1))
Sum = (1 ÷ 2) × (2 × 5 + (2 × (1 - 1))
Sum = 0.5 × (10 + 0)
Sum = 0.5 × 10
Sum = 5
Sum of odd numbers from 4 to 5 = 5
