What is the sum of 151 + 152 + 153 + ⋯ + 210?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 10830

Answer: A, 10830. A sum beginning at 151 can be written as a difference of cumulative sums: 151 + ⋯ + 210 = S₂₁₀ − S₁₅₀. This works because S₂₁₀ contains 1 through 210, and subtracting S₁₅₀ removes 1 through 150. Using Sₙ = n(n + 1)/2, S₂₁₀ = 210 × 211/2 = 105 × 211 = 22155, while S₁₅₀ = 150 × 151/2 = 75 × 151 = 11325. Thus the required sum is 22155 − 11325 = 10830. As a second check, there are 210 − 151 + 1 = 60 terms. Their average is (151 + 210)/2 = 180.5, so the sum is 60 × 180.5 = 10830. Therefore A is correct. The other options arise from an endpoint, term-counting, or subtraction error. Inclusive counting is essential because both 151 and 210 are included.
