Find the sum of first seven numbers which are multiples of 2 as well as of 9.
For finding, the sum of first seven numbers which are multiples of 2 as well as of 9.
Take LCM of 2 and 9 which is 18.
So, the series becomes 18, 36, 54, ….
Clearly this series is an AP.
Here, first term, a = 18
common difference, d = 36 – 18 = 18
Now as Sum of first n terms of an AP is
= 7[ 18 + 54]
= 504
Hence the required sum is 504
