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
