The sum of the numbers between 1 and 81 divisible by 4 can be written in the form of a AP like this :
4 , 8 , 1 2 . . . . . . . 7 6 , 8 0
We can find the number of terms using the following formula,
a n = a + ( n − 1 ) × d
Where a n = 8 0 , a = 4 and d = 4
We get,
n = 2 0
Then we can apply the formula
S n = 2 n × ( a + l )
Where n = 2 0 , a = 4 and l = 8 0
Now we can sub in the values and get S 2 0
S 2 0 = 8 4 0
