Average of first n even numbers


Even numbers are 2,4,6,8,10,….
Average = sum of elements/ no of elments
Now we will see the sum of elements:
Sum of first 2 even numbers: 2+4= 6= 2(2+1)
Sum of first 3 even numbers: 2+4+6= 12= 3(3+1)
Sum of first 4 even  numbers: 2+4+6+8=20= 4(4+1)
Sum of first 5 even numbers: 2+4+6+8+10 = 30 = 5(5+1)
Sum of first n even numbers: 2+4+6+8+10+. . . . .  n numbers= n(n+1)
Now we will see average:
Average of first 2 even numbers= (2+4)/2
                                                          = 6/2
                                                                =3
Average of first 3 even numbers= (2+4+6)/3
                                                          = 12/3
                                                                =4
Average of first 4 even numbers= (2+4+6+8)/4
                                                          = 20/4
                                                                =5
Average of first 5 even numbers= (2+4+6+8+10)/5
                                                          = 30/5
                                                                =6
Average of first n even numbers= (2+4+6+8+10+ . . .  . . n numbers)/n
                                                          = n(n+1)/n
                                                                =n+1
Since from above formula we can write directly as below:
Average of first 2  even numbers = n+1 = 2+1= 3
Average of first 3 even  numbers = n+1 = 3+1=4
Average of first 4 even  numbers = n+1 = 4+1=5
Average of first 5 even numbers = n+1 = 5+1=6

LOGIC BEHIND MAGIC SQUARE

Assume a magic square of 3x3 A B C D E F G H I The above figure shows a 3x3 magic square. In the magic square sum of colum, row, diagnol numbers should be same A+B+C=D+E+F=G+H+I=A+D+G=B+E+H=C+F+I=A+E+I=C+E+G=sum A+B+C D+E+F G+H+I A+D+G B+E+H C+F+I A+E+I C+E+G By  seeing the  above there is 8 type of sum is available. Row wise-3,  column wise-3, diagnol wise-2. Condition#1: There are 8 different combinations are there with same sum in a magic square. In the above 8 combinations A=2 times, B= 3 times, C= 2 times, D=3 times E=4 times, F=3 times, G=2 times, H=3 times, I= 2 times Hence the above forms the condition#2. In simply condition#2, middle number E appears 4 times in 8 combinations. Hence row, column, diagnol sum should be equal. In 3x3 magic square we are taking numbers from 1 to 9. From 9 numbers we need to take 3 numbers. From...
