Subtract the sum of the first (90) natural numbers from the sum of the first (100) natural numbers. What is the result?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 955

Subtracting the sum of the first 90 natural numbers from the sum of the first 100 leaves only the numbers from 91 to 100. Thus, the sum is \(91+92+\cdots+100=\frac{(91+100)\times10}{2}=955\). Therefore, option B is correct. 945 is a close distractor, but it does not use the correct average, \(95.5\), of the numbers from 91 to 100. Exam tip: In such differences, cancel the common initial terms and write the remaining range directly.
