We need to  solve this equation for  n  and then add 1 to the answer to findthe number of terms

 

501 + 2n  =699

 

2n =  699 - 501

 

2n = 198

 

n = 99

 

Number of terms  = 99 + 1   =100

 

Sum =   [ first term + last term ] [ number of terms / 2 ]

 

[ 501 + 699 ]  [ 100/2]  =

 

1200 * 50  =

 

60000
