The sum of the first n even numbers = n ( n + 1)
We have 250 even numbers from 2 to 500 inclusive
So....the sum of these = 250 * 251 = 62750 (1)
The sum of the even numbers from 2 to 8 inclusive = the sum of the first four even numbers = 4 * 5 = 20 (2)
So....the sum of the even numbers between 10 and 500 inclusive = (1) - (2) =
62750 - 20 =
62730
