How many 3-digit numbers are completely divisible 6?

Correct Answer: 150

Explanation:

3-digit number divisible by 6 are: 102, 108, 114,... , 996

This is an A.P. in which a = 102, d = 6 and l = 996


Let the number of terms be n. Then tn = 996.


a + (n - 1)d = 996


⟹ 102 + (n - 1) x 6 = 996


⟹ 6 x (n - 1) = 894


⟹ (n - 1) = 149


n = 150


∴ Number of terms = 150.
