Summing Whole Numbers from 1 to 100

The video tutorial explains how to quickly sum whole numbers from 1 to 100 by pairing them. It demonstrates that pairing numbers like 1 and 100, 2 and 99, and so on, each results in a sum of 101. With 50 such pairs, the total sum is calculated as 50 times 101, equaling 5050.
