There is no substitute for doing the work; so, I'll not give you the answer, directly.

However, the function you need is SUM. The function takes a pair of arguments separated with a colon. Find the first cell (it is not B1 or B2) and the last cell.

Don't for get to ask yourself what you need to do to call the function.
