find the sum of all numbers multiple of 6 between 10 and 90

Solution

To find the sum of all numbers that are multiples of 6 between 10 and 90, follow these steps:

  1. Identify the multiples of 6 within the range:

    • The smallest multiple of 6 greater than 10 is 12.
    • The largest multiple of 6 less than or equal to 90 is 90.

    So, the multiples of 6 in this range are:
    12,18,24,30,36,42,48,54,60,66,72,78,84,9012, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90.

  2. Calculate the sum of these multiples: The sum of an arithmetic series can be calculated using the formula: Sn=n2×(a+l)S_n = \frac{n}{2} \times (a + l) Where:

    • SnS_n is the sum of the series,

    • nn is the number of terms,

    • aa is the first term,

    • ll is the last term.

    • a=12a = 12

    • l=90l = 90

    • To find nn (the number of terms): n=lad+1=90126+1=786+1=13+1=14n = \frac{l - a}{d} + 1 = \frac{90 - 12}{6} + 1 = \frac{78}{6} + 1 = 13 + 1 = 14

  3. Plug in the values: S14=142×(12+90)=7×102=714S_{14} = \frac{14}{2} \times (12 + 90) = 7 \times 102 = 714

Thus, the sum of all numbers that are multiples of 6 between 10 and 90 is 714.
