Question

The sum of the first 44 positive odd numbers is
nothing ______

Answer 1

1936

Explanation:

The sum of the first n odd numbers is n^2

This can be proven, but for 5 odd numbers, 1,3,5,7,9, the sum should be 5^2, or 25, which it is

So for the first 44 odd numbers, the sum is n^2=44^2=1936
