Question

If the sum of first n natural numbers is 1/5 times the sum of their squares, then the value of n is

  1. 5    
  2. 6    
  3. 7    
  4. 8    

The correct answer is: 7


    Since, capital sigma n equals open parentheses fraction numerator 1 over denominator 5 end fraction close parentheses capital sigma n to the power of 2 end exponent
    rightwards double arrow fraction numerator n left parenthesis n plus 1 right parenthesis over denominator 2 end fraction equals fraction numerator 1 over denominator 5 end fraction fraction numerator n open parentheses n plus 1 close parentheses left parenthesis 2 n plus 1 right parenthesis over denominator 6 end fraction
    rightwards double arrow 2 n plus 1 equals 15 rightwards double arrow n equals 7
