How many numbers less than 904 are divisible by 3?
Answers
Solution :-
→ First multiple of 3 is = 3
→ Second multiple of 3 is = 6
So, series will be :- 3, 6, 9, 12, _________ upto 903 .
As we can see that, difference between each multiple is 3 . So, it is a AP series .
So,
→ First term = a = 3
→ common difference = 3
→ T(n) = 903 = Let n th term
then,
→ T(n) = a + (n - 1)d
→ 903 = 3 + (n - 1)3
→ 903 = 3 + 3n - 3
→ 3n = 903
→ n = 301 (Ans.)
therefore, total terms in the AP series are 301 .
Hence, we can conclude that, there are 301 numbers less than 904 that are divisible by 3 .

Answer:
301
Step-by-step explanation:
AP=3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27,30,...…............,903
given,a= 3
d=3
last term (an)=903
n=?
we know that,
a+(n-1)d=an
=>3+(n-1)3=903
=>(n-1)3=903-3
=>(n-1)3=900
=>(n-1)=900/3
=>n-1=300
=>n=300+1
=>n=301
