Averages
find the average of 40 natural numbers that come first
Read Solution (Total 8)
-
- natural number:The whole numbers from 1 upwards: 1, 2, 3, and so on ...
hence we know,sum of n natural number=n(n+1)/2
=40*41/2
=820
avg=820/40=20.5 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(16) No(1)
- (1+2+3+----+40)/40
=40*41/(2*40)[sum of n natural no.s= n*(n+1)/2]
=41/2
=20.5 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(1)
- answer is 20.5
sum of 1 to 40 natural number will be n/2(a+l)
40/2(1+40)=820
so average=820 /40 =20.5

- This question not elitmus level
but Ans: 20.5
1 to 40 sum
so the numbers in A . P.
according formula : (first term + last term)/2
(1+40)/2 = 20.5 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- n(n+1)/2 = sum first n natural numbers
- 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- ans) 20.5
natural numbers are 1,2,3,4.......................40.
so, sum of 40 natural numbers are n(n+1)/2
according to formula, sum = 40(41)/2
avg = sum/total no.
so, (40(41)/2)/40= 41/2 = 20.5 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Ans is 20.5
Average of first 'n' natural no. = n+1/2
(Additional information :p)
Average of first 'n' even no. = n+1 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
