The first 9596 natural numbers are the whole numbers (integers) that start with 1 and end with 9596. To make a list of the first 9596 natural numbers, you simply count up to 9596.

To get the average of those 9596 numbers, you add them up and then divide the sum by 9596. 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 = 9596 in our formula, we get the average of the first 9596 natural numbers. Here is the math and the answer:

avg = ((n × (n + 1)) ÷ 2) ÷ n
avg = ((9596 × (9596 + 1)) ÷ 2) ÷ 9596
avg = ((9596 × 9597) ÷ 2) ÷ 9596
avg = (92092812 ÷ 2) ÷ 9596
avg = 46046406 ÷ 9596
average = 4798.5
