Sum of square of “n” first or consecutive square even numbers:

Sum of cube natural, odd & even numbers

Sum of cube of first or consecutive ” n” natural numbers:

Sum of cube of first or consecutive ” n” even natural numbers = 2n2 (n + 1)2

Sum of cube of first or consecutive ” n” odd natural numbers = n2 (2n2 – 1)

Examples on sum of numbers

Ex . 1 : Find the sum of the first 50 positive integers.
Sol: 1 + 2 + 3+ 4+ 5+ ———-+50 So Here n = 50
= 50 ( 50+1) / 2 = 25 x 51 = 1275
Ex . 2 : Find the sum of the consecutive numbers 25+26+27+28+ —–+100 .
Sol: 25+26+27+28+ —–+50 = ( 1+2+3+4+———+100) – (1+2+3+4+——-24)
= [ 100 ( 100+1) / 2 ] – [ 24 ( 24+1) / 2 ]
 = 5050 – 300 = 4750.
Ex . 3 : Find the sum of the squares of the first 60 natural numbers.
Sol: 1 2 + 2 2 + 3 2 + 4 2 + 5 2 + ———-+60 2 So Here n = 60
= { 60 x (60 + 1) x [( 2 x 60 )+1 ] } / 6
= 60 x 61 x 121 / 6

=73810
Ex . 4 : what is the sum of first 100 odd numbers?
Sol : first 100 odd numbers means 1 + 3 + 5 +7 + ———-+ 199 so here n = 100
= 100 2 = 10000
Ex . 5 : Find the sum of consecutive odd numbers 51 +53 +55 + ———+ 199.
Sol : 51 +53 +55 + ———+ 199 = {1 + 2+ 3 ———+ 199} – { 1 +2 + 3 + ———+ 49}
=100 2 – 25 2
= 10000- 625 = 9375 .
Ex . 6 : Find the sum of the cubes of the first 25 positive integers.
Sol: 1 3 + 2 3 + 3 3 + 4 3 + 5 3 + ———-+25 3 So Here n = 25
= 25 2 x (25 +1 ) 2 / 4
= 625 x 676 / 4 = 105625
Ex . 6 : Find the sum of the cubes of the first 25 odd numbers.
Sol: First 25 odd cube numbers means 1 3 + 3 3 + 5 3 + ———-+49 3 So Here n = 25
= 25 2 [ (2 x 25 2 )– 1 ]
= 625 x [ 1250 – 1]
=625 x 1249 = 780625
Ex . 7 : Find the sum of the consecutive cube numbers 26 3 +28 3 + 30 3 + 32 3 —–+100 3 .
Sol : 26 3 +28 3 + 30 3 + 32 3 —–+100 3 = {2 3 +4 3 + 6 3 + 8 3 —–+100 3 } – {2 3 +4 3 + 6 3 + 8 3 —–
+24 3 }
2 2 2 2
 =(2 x 50 2 )(50 + 1) 2 – (2 x 12 2 )(12 + 1) 2
= [ 5000 x 2601] – [ 288 x 169 ]
= 13005000 – 48672 = 12956328.
Ex . 8 : Find the sum of the consecutive square odd numbers 75 2 + 77 2 + 79 2 + 81 2 +
83 2 + ———-+99 2 .
Sol : 75 2 + 77 2 + 79 2 + 81 2 + 83 2 + ———-+99 2 = {1 2 + 2 2 + 3 2 +—–+99 2 } – { 1 2 +
2 2 + 3 2 + —–+73 2 }
= [ ( 50 ) (4*50 2 – 1) / 3 ] – [ ( 37 ) (4*37 2 – 1) / 3 ]
= [ 50 x 9999 / 3 ] – [ 37 x 5475 / 3]
= 166650 – 67525 = 99125
