Numbers between 100 and 300 which leave remainder 2 on division by 3 are 101, 104, 107, 110, .........299
(a) First number of this sequence = 101
(b) Last number of this sequence = 299
(c) an=a+(n−1)d
299 = 101+(n−1)3
299-101 = (n-1) 3
198/3 = n-1
n = 66+1 = 67
Total numbers ∴n=67
(d) Sum of all numbers in the sequence = n/
2(a+an)
67/2 ( 101+299)
67×200
∴ Sum of all numbers = 13400
