amanul khan  (10 years ago)

check by options..just divide the no by 4 and 250 to it(said in the question) and the again divide the no by 3 and add 100 to it(said in the question).the result should differ by 100(said in the question.
4200/4=1050. then 1050+250=1300 and 4200/3=1400.
so clearly 1400-1300=100.
4200(ans)
