Question

The average (rounded off to two decimal place) of the squares of the first 84 natural numbers is

A.

2393.17

B.

2394.17

C.

2396.17

D.

2395.17

Correct option is B

Given:
Number of terms (n) = 84
Formula Used:
Sum of squares of first n natural numbers = n(n+1)(2n+1)6\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}​​
Average of squares = (n+1)(2n+1)6 \frac{(n+1)(2n+1)}{6}​​
Solution:
Substitute n = 84 into the average formula:
Average=(84+1)(2×84+1)6 Average=85×1696 Average=143656 Average=2394.166...2394.17\text{Average} = \frac{(84 + 1)(2 \times 84 + 1)}{6}\\ \ \\\text{Average}= \frac{85 \times 169}{6}\\ \ \\\text{Average}= \frac{14365}{6}\\ \ \\\text{Average} = 2394.166... \approx 2394.17​​
So the correct answer is (b)
