You can put this solution on YOUR website!
using sigma notation, the variable and starting point go under the sigma symbol; the end point goes above; and the operation goes to the right

in this case ... 1 is starting value ... 100 is ending value ... operation is just the variable (no squaring etc.)

sum%28n%2Cn=1%2C100%29
