Find the sum:$25 + 28 + 31 + ……….. + 100$
Given:
Given sequence is $25 + 28 + 31 + ……….. + 100$.
To do:
We have to find the sum of $25 + 28 + 31 + ……….. + 100$.
Solution:
Here,
\( 25+28+31+\ldots+100 \) is in A.P.
\( a=25, d=28-25=3 \) and \( l=100 \)
We know that,
\( a_{n}=a+(n-1) d \)
\( \Rightarrow 100=25+(n-1) \times 3 \)
\( \Rightarrow 100=25+3 n-3 \)
\( \Rightarrow 100-25+3=3 n \)
\( \Rightarrow 3 n=78 \)
\( \Rightarrow n=\frac{78}{3}=26 \)
\( \mathrm{S}_{n}=\frac{n}{2}[a+l] \)
\( =\frac{26}{2}[25+100] \)
\( =13 \times 125 \)
\( = 1625 \) 
Therefore, the sum of the given sequence is $1625$.
