The odd numbers from 1 to 2001 are:
1, 3, 5, ........., 2001
This froms an AP
where first term a = 1
Common difference d = 3 - 1 = 2
last term l = 2001
Let number of terms = n
Now, l = a + (n - 1)d
=> 2001 = 1 + (n - 1)2
=> 2001 - 1 = (n - 1)2
=> 2(n - 1) = 2000
=> n - 1 = 2000/2
=> n - 1 = 1000
=> n = 1001
Now, sum = (n/2)*(a + l)
= (1001/2)*(1 + 2001)
= (1001/2) * 2002
= 1001 * 1001
= 1002001
So, the sum of odd integers from 1 to 2001 is 1002001
