What remains after subtracting (1000) from the sum of the first (50) natural numbers?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 275

The sum of the first 50 natural numbers is
\(S=\frac{50\times51}{2}=1275\). Therefore, after subtracting 1000, we get \(1275-1000=275\). Hence, option D is correct. A value such as 255 results from an error in finding the sum or carrying out the subtraction. Exam tip: use \(\frac{n(n+1)}{2}\) for the sum of the first \(n\) natural numbers.
