How many natural numbers are there between 23 and 100 which are exactly divisible by 6?

Correct Answer: 13

Explanation:

Required numbers are 24, 30, 36, 42, ..., 96

This is an A.P. in which a = 24, d = 6 and l = 96


Let the number of terms in it be n.


Then tn = 96  ⟹  a + (n - 1)d = 96


⟹ 24 + (n - 1) x 6 = 96


⟹ (n - 1) x 6 = 72


⟹ (n - 1) = 12


n = 13


Required number of numbers = 13.
