How many 3 - digit numbers are divisible by 7?
To Find : 3 - digit numbers divisible by 7.
First 3 - digit number divisible by 7 is 105
Second 3 - digit number divisible by 7 is 112 and
Last 3 - digit number divisible by 7 is 994.
Given: The AP is 105, 112, 119,…………..,994
a1 = 105, a2 = 112, d = 112–105 = 7 and an = 994
(Where a=a1 is First term, a2 is Second term, an is nth term and d is common difference of given AP)
Formula Used: an = a + (n - 1)d
994 = 105 + (n - 1)7
889 = (n - 1)7
127 = (n - 1)
n = 128
So, There are total of 128 three - digit number which is divisible by 7.
