      Question

      How many 3 digit numbers are divisible by

      3?
      A 98 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 300 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 97 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 99 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The three-digit natural numbers start from 100 and end with 999. The first three-digit number which is divisible by 3 is 102. The last three-digit number which is divisible by 3 is 999. The numbers divisible by 3 form an arithmetic sequence with the first term a = 102 and the last term Tn = 999, and a common difference d = 3. Use the formula for the n-th term of an arithmetic sequence: Tn = a+(n-1) Γ— d 999=102 + (n-1) Γ— 3 999-102= (n-1) Γ— 3 897 =(n-1) Γ— 3 (n-1) =299 n =300
