- 8
write the numbers that are divisible by 7
then given that three numbers should be different
so strike off those numbers which are equal
do it for one type of series i.e;for two hundred terms the numbers divisible by 7 are 203,210,217,224,231,238,245,252,259,266,273,280,287,295
but according to the given first condition the numbers divisible are
203,210,217,231,238,245,259,287,294.
and another condition given is while reversing the numbers they should be divisible by 7
so by this only 259 can be divisible by 7 by reversing it also
in the way 159, 259,359,459,659,759,859 will be the numbers divisible by 7 with all the conditions sastisfied
the 3-digit numbers divisible are 7 - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(5)
- 495 and 959 and completes all the rules
