Abstract :
In this paper, we present a newly observed
pattern in the sums of consecutive natural numbers. The
pattern demonstrates that the sum of the first nnn
natural numbers, when added to the square of nnn,
equals the sum of the next nnn natural numbers. This
finding introduces a unique relationship within
arithmetic sequences, offering a fresh perspective on the
properties of natural number summation. The
implications of this pattern may extend to various areas
of number theory, combinatorics, and mathematical
analysis.
