The average of the first 549 natural numbers

Here we will define and show you the formula and the math to calculate the average of the first 549 natural numbers.

The first 549 natural numbers are the whole numbers (integers) that start with 1 and end with 549. To make a list of the first 549 natural numbers, you simply count up to 549.

To get the average of those 549 numbers, you add them up and then divide the sum by 549. 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 = 549 in our formula, we get the average of the first 549 natural numbers. Here is the math and the answer:

avg = ((n × (n + 1)) ÷ 2) ÷ n
avg = ((549 × (549 + 1)) ÷ 2) ÷ 549
avg = ((549 × 550) ÷ 2) ÷ 549
avg = (301950 ÷ 2) ÷ 549
avg = 150975 ÷ 549
average = 275
