    If\[1+\frac{1+2}{2}+\frac{1+2+3}{3}+.....\]to n terms is S, then S is equal to:

    A)  \[\frac{n(n+3)}{4}\]                      

    B)                         \[\frac{n(n+2)}{4}\]

    C)                         \[\frac{n(n+1)(n+2)}{6}\]           

    D)                         \[{{n}^{2}}\]

    E)                         \[0\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    \[\therefore \]\[{{T}_{n}}=\frac{1+2+3+....+n}{n}\] \[=\frac{\Sigma n}{n}=\frac{n(n+1)}{2n}=\frac{n+1}{2}\] Now,    \[S=\Sigma {{T}_{n}}=\frac{1}{2}\Sigma n+\Sigma \frac{1}{2}\]                 \[=\frac{1}{2}\left\{ \frac{n(n+1)}{2} \right\}+\frac{n}{2}\]                 \[=\frac{n}{2}\left( \frac{n+1}{2}+1 \right)\]                 \[=\frac{n(n+3)}{4}\]
