Solution
First 12 natural numbers which are multiple of 7 are as follows:
7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70, 77, 84
Clearly, this forms an A.P. with first term a = 7,
Common difference d = 7 and last term l = 84
Sum of first n terms = `S = n/2 [a + l]`
`=>` Sum of first 12 natural numbers which are multiple of 7
= `12/2 [7 + 84]`
= 6 × 91
= 546
