MCQ
The sum of first $20$ odd natural number is
  • A
    $100$
  • B
    $210$
  • $200$
  • D
    $420$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$200$
$ S _{20}=1+3+5+7+\cdots$ 
$\text { Here } a =1, d=2, S_0, T_{20}=( a +19 d)$
$=1+19 \times 2=38=\text { last term (l) }$
$\therefore S _{20}=\frac{ n }{2}( a + l )=\frac{20}{2}(1+39)$
$=20 \times 20$
$=400$
