What is the difference between the sum of the first (135) natural numbers and the sum of the first (90) natural numbers?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 5085

The sum of the first n natural numbers is \(S_n=\frac{n(n+1)}{2}\). Thus, \(S_{135}=\frac{135\times136}{2}=9180\) and \(S_{90}=\frac{90\times91}{2}=4095\). Therefore, the difference is \(9180-4095=5085\). Equivalently, it is the sum of the numbers from 91 to 135. Exam tip: write \(S_{135}-S_{90}\) first, then apply the sum formula.
