Number System -2

Rules of counting numbers: 1. Sum of all first natural numbers: = {n(n+1)}/2 Ex 1 Sum od 1+2+3+....100= {100(100+1)}/2=50*101 =5050 2. Sum of first n  odd Numbers= n^2 (where "n" is numbers) Ex. 1+3+5+...20th odd numbers= 20^2= 400 3. Sum of first n even numbers= n(n+1) Ex. Sum of 2+4+6... 100= 50 th even numbers then =50(50+1)= 2550 4. Sum of square of first n numbers ={n(n+1)(2n+1)}/6 Ex. 1 to 10th sqare sum is {10(10+1)(2*10+1)}/6 5. Sum of Cube of first numbers= [{n(n+1)}/2]^2 Ex. 1 to 6 cube sum = [{6(6+1)}/2]^2 = 21^2= 441 In the first n counting number if n is even the number of odd numbers is n/2 and the even number is also n/2.\ If the first n counting number is odd the number of odd numbers is (n+1)/2 and the even number is (n-1)/2.
