Sum of the first 7 even numbers

The first 7 even numbers range from 2 to 14. On this page, we will show you how to calculate the first 7 positive even whole numbers by using our formula.

The formula to calculate the sum of even numbers is: sum = n × ( n + 1) where n is the even numbers. When we enter 7 into our formula, we get the following:

7 × (7 + 1)
= 56

Therefore, the sum of the first 7 even numbers is 56.

Be aware that we consider 2 to be the first positive even number. If you consider 0 to be the first positive even number, then the answer to the sum of the first 7 even numbers would be 42.

Note that the sum of the first 7 even numbers is not the same as the sum of all even numbers up to 7. The sum of all even numbers from 1 to 7 inclusive is 12.
