We know that all even integers will have a common difference of 2.

So, AP is 102, 104, 106, …, 998

We know, a = 102, d = 104 – 102 = 2, an = 998

By using the formula,

an = a + (n - 1)d

998 = 102 + (n - 1)2

998 = 102 + 2n – 2

2n = 998 – 102 + 2

2n = 898

n = 898/2

= 449

By using the formula,

Sum of n terms, S = n/2 [a + l]

= 449/2 [102 + 998]

= 449/2 [1100]

= 449 [550]

= 246950

∴ The sum of all even integers between 101 and 999 is 246950.
