Q58 / 90 · JEE Main 2023 (13 Apr Shift 2) · Mathematics

Let α denote the greatest integer ≤α. Then 1+2+3+.............+120 is equal to

Correct answer: 825

Solution

Given,

 1+2+3+.............+120

Now we now that,

x=1, when x∈[1,4), x=2, when x∈[4,9) and similarly x=10, when x∈[100,120)

Now using the above formula we get,

E=1+1+1+2+2+2+2+2+3+3+3+3+3+3+3+4+4+…

⇒E=3×1+5×2+7×3+…..+19×9+10×21

⇒E=∑r=1102r+1r

⇒E=2∑r=110r2+r

⇒E=210×11×216+10×112

⇒E=770+55

⇒E=825

Hence, the correct answer is 825.
