Hint:  100 - 98  =  2

            96 - 94  =  2

            92 - 90  =  2

                      ...

               8 -  6  =  2

               4 -  2  =  2

 

How many 2s do you need to add together?

we put them into groups like this 100-98=2 like hwat geno3141 said and we have 100/2=50 groups of 2 numbers of 2 so the sum is 2*50=100
