Question

Mathematicians use "..." to mean that a pattern continues: it

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We khow that A is the sum of all odd numbers that are less than 100

So A= 1+3+5+...+99

We can calculate this sum without adding all this numbers one by one

A = the number of terms *( first term + last one ) over 2

To get the number of terms we substract the first term from the last term then we add one

We khow that odd numbers are wiritten this way : 2*n +1 where n is an integer

So 99= 2*49+1

1= 2*0+1

So the number of terms is : 49-0+1 =50

So A= 50*(1+99)/2 = 2500

Foloowing the same method we get :

B= (49-1+1)*(2+98)/2= 2450

A>B
