Make pairs, of one number from each end:

1 + 40 = 41

2 + 39 = 41

3 + 38 = 41

4 + 37 = 41

5 + 36 = 41

.

.

19 + 22 = 41

20 + 21 = 41

You made pairs out of 40 numbers, so you have 20 pairs.

Each pair adds up to 41.

The sum is (20) x (41) = 820 .

How do you find the sum of all the whole numbers between any two whole numbers?

You know that sum of the first n whole numbers is n(n+1)/2. ( it is the same as the first n natural numbers since the zero does not add anything) So lets say you want the sum of all the whole numbers between 3 and 10. ( I made it easy to illustrate the idea.) The sum of the whole numbers between 0 and 3 is 3(4)/2=6 The sum of the whole numbers between 0 and 10 is 10(11)/2=55 So the sum of the whole numbers between 3 and 10 is the (sum of the whole number between 0 and 10) -(sum of whole numbers between 0 and 3) which is 55-6=49 So in general, for whole numbers m and n with m
