find the
Sum of
two-digit whole numbers
divisible by 3?
Answers
Answer:
1665
First two digit number divisible by 3 = 12
Last two digit number divisible by 3 = 99
∴ First term, (a)=12
Common difference, (d)=3
Last term, (l)=99
n=?
As we know that,
a
n
=a+(n−1)d
∴99=12+(n−1)3
⇒(n−1)
3
87
⇒n=29+1=30
∴ Sum of n terms of an A.P., when last term is known is given by-
S
n
=
2
n
(a+l)
∴S
30
=

(12+99)
⇒S

Step-by-step explanation:
According to the question two digit no. s divisible by 3 are 12,15,18,......99
so for calculating the Sn=n/2[2a+(n-1) d]
by using this formula we have to first calculate the n (that is no. of terms)
An=a+(n-1)d
99=12+(n-1) ×3 [ common difference d=3]
99-12=(n-1) ×3
87/3=n-1
29+1=n
n= 30
Now calculating sum of n term, Sn=n/2
[2a+(n-1) d]
Sn=30/2[12+99]
15×111
1665
so, sum of 2 digit terms divisible by 3 is 1665.
