Find how many integers between 200 and 500 are divisible by 8.
The integers between 200 and 500 divisible by 8 are 208, 216, 224,…,496.
This forms an AP with first term = a = 208
and common difference = d = 8
Last term is 496.
Now, number of terms in this AP are given as:
496 = a + (n – 1)d
⇒ 496 = 208 + (n - 1)8
⇒ 496 – 208 = 8n – 8
⇒ 388 = 8n - 8
⇒ 388 + 8 = 8n
⇒ 496 = 8n
⇒ n = 62
There are 62 integers between 200 and 500 that are divisible by 8.
