How many three digit numbers are divisible by 7?
Smallest 3-digit number that is divisible by 7 is 105 and greatest 3-digit number that is divisible by 7 is 994.
Let the no. of three digits numbers that are divisible by 7 be n.
Thus, an = 994, first term a = 105 and common difference d = 7.
Since, an = a + (n - 1)d
Where,
a = First term of AP
d = Common difference of AP
and no of terms is ‘n’
⇒ 994 = 105 + (n - 1) × 7
⇒ 994 – 105 = 7 × (n - 1)
⇒ 889 = 7 × (n - 1)
⇒ 127 = n – 1
⇒ n = 128
Hence, Total 3-digit numbers that are divisible by 7 are 128.
