Even divisibility!

How many positive even integers n are there such that 100<=n<=200 and n is neither divisible by seven nor by nine?

If you found them to be x ,then calculate:

(x+1)^2-(x-1)^2


The answer is 156.

Total no of even numbers between 100<=n<=200 is 51 and even neither divisible by 7 nor by 9 is 12(not divisible by 7 is 6 and not divisible by 9 is 6 and one is common i.e. divisible by 63). So x=39 and (x+1)^2-(x-1)^2=4x. Hence answer is 156

can you recheck your solution once... you have said- "evens neither divisible by 7 nor by 9 is 12", i think that numbers divisible by 7 are 7, divisible by 9 are 6 and 1 no (i.e. 126 ) is common, so evens divisible by 7 or 9 are 12 and remaining are 51-12 = 39.
