5. The sum of all two digit odd numbers is.
(a) 2575
(b) 2475
(c) 2524
(d) 2425
Dear Student
The number will start from 11 and end with 99
and common difference d=2 so the numbers are in AP
Tn = 99 , a = 11 , d=2
Tn = a + (n - 1)d
⇒99 = 11 + (n - 1)2
⇒99-11 = (n - 1)2
⇒88 = 2(n - 1)
⇒44 = n-1
⇒n = 45
Now sum of terms,
sum = n(a + l)/2 where l = 99
sum = 45(11 + 99)/2
= 45 × 110/2
= 45×55
= 2475, so the sum of digits are 2475
option-B is correct
