If \(S_n=\frac{n(n+1)}{2}\) and \(S_n=861\), what is the value of (n)?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 41

Given \(\frac{n(n+1)}{2}=861\), we get \(n(n+1)=1722\). Since \(41\times42=1722\), \(n=41\). For the close distractor \(40\), the sum is \(\frac{40\times41}{2}=820\), not 861. Exam tip: look for two consecutive numbers whose product equals twice the given sum.
