Math Problem Statement

find the sum of all integers multiples of 7 from 60 to 290

Solution

To find the sum of all integers that are multiples of 7 between 60 and 290, follow these steps:

1. Identify the first and last multiples of 7 in the range:

  • First multiple of 7: As we previously found, the smallest multiple of 7 greater than or equal to 60 is 63.
  • Last multiple of 7: The largest multiple of 7 less than or equal to 290 is 287.

2. List the multiples of 7 in the range:

  • The multiples of 7 are: 63, 70, 77, ..., 287.

3. Count the number of multiples of 7:

  • The first multiple of 7 in the sequence is 63=7×963 = 7 \times 9.
  • The last multiple of 7 in the sequence is 287=7×41287 = 7 \times 41.
  • The number of terms nn is 419+1=3341 - 9 + 1 = 33.

4. Use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic sequence:

The sum SS of an arithmetic sequence is given by: S=n2×(first term+last term)S = \frac{n}{2} \times (\text{first term} + \text{last term})

  • Here, n=33n = 33, the first term is 63, and the last term is 287.

5. Calculate the sum:

S=332×(63+287)=332×350=33×175=5775S = \frac{33}{2} \times (63 + 287) = \frac{33}{2} \times 350 = 33 \times 175 = 5775

So, the sum of all integers that are multiples of 7 between 60 and 290 is 5,775.
