Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the sum of the numbers between 51 and 100 (inclusive of 51 and 100):
There are 50 terms
Sum = n/2 (a1 + an)
Sum = 50/2 (51 + 100) = 3775
Find the sum of numbers between 1 and 50 (inclusive of 1 and 50)
There are 50 terms
Sum = n/2 (a1 + an)
Sum = 50/2 (1 + 50) = 1275
Find the difference:
Difference = 3775 - 1275 = 2500
Answer: The sum of 50 whole numbers 51,52...,100 is 2500 greater than the sum of fifty whole numbers 1,2,...,50.
