There are 500 even numbers from 1 to 1000.
Understanding Even Numbers
An even number is any number that is divisible by 2 without leaving a remainder. In the sequence from 1 to 1000, every other number is even:
- 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, ... , 998, 999, 1000.
Calculating Even Numbers
To find the number of even numbers in a given range, we can use a simple formula:
Number of even numbers = (Last even number - First even number) / 2 + 1
In this case:
- Last even number = 1000
- First even number = 2
Therefore:
- Number of even numbers = (1000 - 2) / 2 + 1 = 500
Conclusion
There are 500 even numbers from 1 to 1000. This is because every other number in this sequence is divisible by 2.
