Here we will define and show you the formula and the math to calculate the average of the first 289 natural numbers.

The first 289 natural numbers are the whole numbers (integers) that start with 1 and end with 289. To make a list of the first 289 natural numbers, you simply count up to 289.

To get the average of those 289 numbers, you add them up and then divide the sum by 289. We created a formula that can calculate the average of any sequence of natural numbers starting with 1. Here is the formula to calculate the average (avg) of the first n natural numbers:

avg = ((n × (n + 1)) ÷ 2) ÷ n

When we enter n = 289 in our formula, we get the average of the first 289 natural numbers. Here is the math and the answer:

avg = ((n × (n + 1)) ÷ 2) ÷ n
avg = ((289 × (289 + 1)) ÷ 2) ÷ 289
avg = ((289 × 290) ÷ 2) ÷ 289
avg = (83810 ÷ 2) ÷ 289
avg = 41905 ÷ 289
average = 145
