Find the sum of all integers between 50 and 500,
Find the sum of all integers between 50 and 500, which are divisible by 7.
In this problem, we need to find the sum of all the multiples of 7 lying between 50 and 500.
So, we know that the first multiple of 7 after 50 is 56 and the last multiple of 7 before 500 is 497.
Also, all these terms will form an A.P. with the common difference of 7.
So here,
First term (a) = 56
Last term (l) = 497
Common difference (d) = 7
So, here the first step is to find the total number of terms. Let us take the number of terms as n.
Now, as we know,
$a_{n}=a+(n-1) d$
So, for the last term,
$497=56+(n-1) 7$
$497=56+7 n-7$
$497=49+7 n$
$497-49=7 n$
Further simplifying,
$448=7 n$
$n=\frac{448}{7}$
$n=64$
Now, using the formula for the sum of n terms,
$S_{\pi}=\frac{n}{2}[2 a+(n-1) d]$
For n = 64, we get,
$S_{\pi}=\frac{64}{2}[2(56)+(64-1) 7]$
$=32[112+(63) 7]$
$=32(112+441)$
$=32(553)$
$=17696$
Therefore, the sum of all the multiples of 7 lying between 50 and 500 is $S_{n}=17696$.
