This math topic focuses on teaching students how to compute the sum of integers between two specific numbers. It explores deriving equations using summation formulas, notably the sum of an arithmetic series. Each problem provides a sequence of consecutive integers, and the student must determine the summation equation that correctly represents the total sum of these integers. Options for the correct equation are presented in LaTeX-rendered images, enhancing understanding of mathematical notation. This is an advanced exercise in recognizing patterns and applying summation formulas correctly.
