(22 + 42 + 62 + ... + 202) = ?
770
1155
1540
385 x 385
Answer: Option
Explanation:

(22 + 42 + 62 + ... + 202) = (1 x 2)2 + (2 x 2)2 + (2 x 3)2 + ... + (2 x 10)2

= (22 x 12) + (22 x 22) + (22 x 32) + ... + (22 x 102)

= 22 x [12 + 22 + 32 + ... + 102]

Ref: (12 + 22 + 32 + ... + n2) = 1 n(n + 1)(2n + 1)    
6

= 4 x 1 x 10 x 11 x 21
6

= (4 x 5 x 77)

= 1540.

Thank you for explaining the answer @Shweta.

For given problem, use formula
-->Sum of squares of first n even numbers = 2n*(n+1)*(2n+1)/3.

If you want to find out
-->Sum of squares of n natural numbers = n*(n+1)*(2n+1)/6.

-->Sum of squares of first n odd numbers= n*(2n+1)*(2n-1)/3.

How 4 came? Explain me.

This formula is based on sum of squares of first positive integers=1^2+2^2+3^2+..........+10^2=n(n+1)(2n+1)/6.

Series is (2^2+4^2+6^2+.......).

= 2^2+(2*2)^2+(2*3)^2+.....+(2*10)^2
2^2(1+2^2+3^2+.......+10^2).

So it will be 4*(1/6)*n(n+1)(2n+1) where n= 10.

I can't understand this. Can anyone explain this in detail?

Priya said:   7 years ago
Here the answer cannot be 1540. It should be 770 because 4 cannot be multiplied on it only 2 can be multiplied. Because 2^2 cannot be taken only 2 can be taken.

Can anyone tell me what is the next number of the below series: -1,0,1,8,....?

I can't understand. Please explain?

Did not understand.

Why 4 is multiplied with 1/6?
