Sean adds up all the even integers from 2 to 500, inclusive. Julie adds up all the integers from 1 to 250, inclusive. What is Sean's sum divided by Julie's sum?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Sean's sum divided by Julie's sum is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of an arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]\frac{n}{2}(2a+(n-1)d)[/tex]

In Sean's sequence, a = 2, n = 250, and d = 2

In Julie's sequence, a = 1, n = 250, and d = 2

[tex]\frac{\frac{250}{2}(2(2)+(250-1)2)}{\frac{250}{2}(2(1)+(250-1)1)}\\= 2[/tex]
