Question 1107363
.
21 + 17 + 13 + 9 + 5 + 1 = 66.


6 rows.


Surely, one can use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic progression,


but it is too powerful tool for such simple problem.


Much faster way is to add the numbers directly (and mentally).



---------------
Although, if you want to use well known formulas for arithmetic progression, you can do it.
