The number of3-digit numbers, that are divisible by either2or3but not divisible by7is _____ .

Answer:
514
Solution:

We know that total number of three-digit number will be 900,

Now let nA be number of three-digit number which are divisible by 2, i.e,

A=100,102,...,998

nA=450

nB be number of three-digit number which are divisible by 3, i.e, B=102,105,...,999

nB=300

Numbers divisible by both 2 and 3 is

102,108,...996 i.e, 150

Numbers divisible by both 2 and 7 are 112,126,...,994 i.e., 64 numbers.

Numbers divisible by both 3 and 7 is 105,126,...987 i.e, 43 numbers.

Numbers divisible by 2,3 & 7 is 126,168,...,966 i.e, 21 numbers.

Required number

=450+150-64-43+21=514

Hence, 514 three-digit number are there which are divisible by 2 or 3 but not divisible by 7.
