The Sum Of All 3 Digit Numbers Divisible By 3 Is?

Answer»

All 3 digit numbers DIVISIBLE by 3 are :

102, 105, 108, 111, ..., 999.

This is an A.P. with first element 'a' as 

102 and difference 'd' as 3.

Let it contains n terms. Then,

102 + (n - 1) x3 = 999 

102 + 3n-3 = 999

3n = 900 or n = 300

Sum of AP = n/2 [2*a + (n-1)*d]

REQUIRED sum = 300/2[2*102 + 299*3] = 165150.
