How to Find the Sum of First 800 Odd Numbers?

The below workout with step by step calculation shows how to find what is the sum of first 800 odd numbers by applying arithmetic progression. It's one of the easiest methods to quickly find the sum of given number series.
step 1 Input Parameters and values:
The number series 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, .  .  .  .  , 1599.
The first term a = 1
The common difference d = 2
Total number of terms n = 800

step 2 apply the input parameter values in the AP formula
Sum = n/2 x (a + Tn)
= 800/2 x (1 + 1599)
= (800 x 1600)/ 2
= 1280000/2
1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + .  .  .  .   + 1599 = 640000

Therefore, 640000 is the sum of first 800 odd numbers.
