What is the sum of the first 100 even natural numbers?

The sum of the first 100 even natural numbers = 10, 100

Step-by-step explanation:

We can compute the sum of the first 100 even natural numbers using the formula    

Replacing n with the number of terms i.e. 100

                          ∵  

As we have to look for even number, just multiply them by

Therefore, the sum of the first 100 even natural numbers = 10, 100

none of the above.

for one of the equations to be used in the process, there has to be a term in the equation since squared is .

since there is only a term in the first equation, we cannot derive a from completing the square.

solving with completing the square

yes they are the same
