Solution

The two-digit numbers divisible by 3 are 12, 15, 18, ..., 99.
Clearly, these number are in AP.
Here, a = 12 and d =15 - 12 = 3
Let this AP contains n terms. Then,

an = 99

⇒ 12 + (n-1) × 3 =99                 [a= a + (n-1) d]

⇒ 3n + 9 =99

 ⇒ 3n  = 99 - 9 = 90

⇒ n =  30

Hence, there are 30 two-digit numbers divisible by 3.
