      Solution

      ATQ;

      If a number is a multiple of 3, 6, and 9, then the number is a multiple of the L.C.M of 3, 6, and 9.

      L.C.M of 3, 6, and 9 = 18

      Smallest multiple of 18 between 50 and 500 = 54

      Largest multiple of 18 between 50 and 500 = 486

      Common difference = 18

      Let the required number of terms be 'n'.

      So, 54 + (n - 1) × 18 = 486

      Or, n - 1 = (486 - 54) ÷ 18 = 24

      So, n = 24 + 1 = 25

      So, there are 25 numbers between 50 and 500 which are multiples of 3, 6, and 9.
