Q. The sum of all integers between 200 and 400 divisible by 9 is
β
Correct Answer: (B)
6633
Explanation:
Multiples of 9 between 200 and 400 are:
First multiple = 207 (9 Γ 23)
Last multiple = 396 (9 Γ 44)
This is an AP:
a = 207
l = 396
d = 9
Number of terms:
n = (396 - 207)/9 + 1
= 189/9 + 1
= 21 + 1
= 22
Sum of AP:
S = n/2 Γ (a + l)
= 22/2 Γ (207 + 396)
= 11 Γ 603
= 6633
Answer: (B) 6633
Explanation by: Mr. Dubey
Multiples of 9 between 200 and 400 are:
First multiple = 207 (9 Γ 23)
Last multiple = 396 (9 Γ 44)
This is an AP:
a = 207
l = 396
d = 9
Number of terms:
n = (396 - 207)/9 + 1
= 189/9 + 1
= 21 + 1
= 22
Sum of AP:
S = n/2 Γ (a + l)
= 22/2 Γ (207 + 396)
= 11 Γ 603
= 6633
