Question

The sum of the first 46 postive and odd numbers is

Answer 1

The sum of first 46 positive and odd numbers is 2116

Solution:

Given that we have to find the sum of first 46 positive and odd numbers

The sum of first "n" natural odd numbers which are positive is given as:

$Sum = n^2$

Here, n = 46

Therefore,

sum of first 46 positive and odd numbers = $46^2$

sum of first 46 positive and odd numbers = $46 \times 46 = 2116$

Thus the sum of first 46 positive and odd numbers is 2116
