Question -

Find the sum of all integers between 84 and 719, which are multiples of 5



Answer -

The series is 85, 90,95, …, 715

Let there be ‘n’ termsin the AP

So, a = 85, d = 90-85= 5, an = 715

an = a+ (n-1)d

715 = 85 + (n-1)5

715 = 85 + 5n – 5

5n = 715 – 85 + 5

5n = 635

n = 635/5

= 127

By using the formula,

Sum of n terms, S =n/2 [a + l]

= 127/2 [85 + 715]

= 127/2 [800]

= 127 [400]

= 50800

The sum of all integersbetween 84 and 719, which are multiples of 5 is 50800.
