200, 208, 216,.......... 496

a = 200

d = 8

L = 496

=> a + (n-1)d = 496

=> 200 + (n-1) 8 = 496

=> (n-1) 8 = 296

=> n-1 = 37

=> n = 38

Required number of terms = 38

Anonymous: well brother it is told in question that divisible by 8 between 200 to 500 not from 200 to 500
gaurav2013c: the lower limit is counted
gaurav2013c: Here the lower limit is 200
gaurav2013c: so we count
