The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the sum of the series 6 + 12 + 18 + 24 + ... + 60. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Series**: The series given is 6, 12, 18, 24, ..., 60. We can see that each term in this series is a multiple of 6. 2. **Factor out the Common Multiple**: We can factor out 6 from each term: \[ 6 + 12 + 18 + 24 + ... + 60 = 6(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... + 10) \] 3. **Identify the Inner Series**: The inner series is \(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... + 10\). We know from the problem statement that this sum is equal to 55. 4. **Substitute the Known Sum**: We can substitute the known sum into our equation: \[ 6(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... + 10) = 6 \times 55 \] 5. **Calculate the Final Sum**: Now we calculate: \[ 6 \times 55 = 330 \] Thus, the sum of the series 6 + 12 + 18 + 24 + ... + 60 is **330**. ### Final Answer: The sum is **330**.
