Step-by-step explanation:
Three digit numbers which leave the remainder 3 when divided by 5 are 103, 108, 113,___, 998.
_____________________________________
103, 108, 113,___, 998 is an A.P
First term of the A.P, a = 103
Common different of the A.P, d = 5
Let 998 be the nth term of the A.P.
an = a + (n – 1) d
∴ 103 + (n – 1) × 5 = 998
⇒ 5 (n – 1) = 998 – 103 = 895
⇒ (n – 1) = 179
⇒ n = 180
