What is the average of odd numbers from 1 to 2956? Here we will show you how to calculate the average of odd numbers from 1 to 2956.
To find the average of the odd numbers from 1 to 2956, we first calculate how many odd numbers there are from 1 to 2956. Then, we calculate the sum of odd numbers from 1 to 2956. And finally, we divide the sum by the number of odd numbers to get the average.
The range is from 1 to 2956, and the odd numbers within that range are from 1 to 2955. Therefore, the first odd number in the sequence is 1, and the last odd number in the sequence is 2955.
Step 1) Calculate the total number of odd numbers from 1 to 2956
Here we calculate the total number of odd numbers from 1 to 2956 by entering the first and last odd number in the sequence into our formula. Here is the formula and the math:
tot = (last - first + 2) ÷ 2
tot = (2955 - 1 + 2) ÷ 2
tot = 2956 ÷ 2
tot = 1478
Total odd numbers from 1 to 2956 = 1478
Step 2) Calculate the sum of odd numbers from 1 to 2956
To calculate the sum of odd numbers from 1 to 2956, you enter the total odd numbers (tot) from Step 1 and the first odd number in the sequence into our formula. Here is the formula and the math:
sum = (tot ÷ 2) × (2 × first + (2 × (tot - 1))
sum = (1478 ÷ 2) × (2 × 1 + (2 × (1478 - 1))
sum = 739 × (2 + 2954)
sum = 739 × 2956
sum = 2184484
Sum of odd numbers from 1 to 2956 = 2184484
Step 3) Calculate the average of odd numbers from 1 to 2956
Almost done! Now we can calculate the average of odd numbers from 1 to 2956 by dividing the sum of odd numbers from Step 2 by the total odd numbers from Step 1. Here is the formula, the math, and the answer:
Average = sum ÷ tot
Average = 2184484 ÷ 1478
Average = 1478
Average of odd numbers from 1 to 2956 = 1478
