Question
Find the sum of all numbers between 200 and 400 which are divisible by 7.
Advertisements
Solution
The numbers lying between 200 and 400, which are divisible by 7, are
203, 210, 217, … 399
∴First term, a = 203
Last term, l = 399
Common difference, d = 7
Let the number of terms of the A.P. be n.
∴ an = 399 = a + (n –1) d
⇒ 399 = 203 + (n –1) 7
⇒ 7 (n –1) = 196
⇒ n –1 = 28
⇒ n = 29
