The first 100 odd natural numbers are the number 1-201, ignoring all even numbers.
If you think about this for a moment, you realize that :
1+201 = 202
3+199 = 202
5+197 = 202
etc.
With this, you can pair up all of your numbers leaving you with 50 pairs, all equaling 202.
Ergo: 50*202 = 10100 is your sum.
