Gaussian Elimination - Linear Algebra

I wanted to find no. of operations required to perform Gauss elimination and turns out to be $O(n^3)$.



The procedure is like let's say you have $100 times 100$ matrix then at first level we require $100^2$ operations, on second level around $99^2$ operations and so on. which is nothing but $1 + 2^2 + 3^2 + ....+n^2$ which gives complexity of $O(n^3)$. The part I didn't understand why first level requires $100^2$ operations.
