The sum of numbers from $250$ to $1000$ which are divisible by $3$ is
A
$135657$
B
$136557$
C
$161575$
D
$156375$
Solution
(d) The number divisible by $3$ between $250$ to $1000$ are $252, 255, ….., 999.$
$\therefore $${T_n} = 999 = 252 + (n – 1)3$
$ \Rightarrow $$333 = 84 + n – 1$
$ \Rightarrow $ $n = 250$
$\therefore $ $S = \frac{n}{2}[a + l] = \frac{{250}}{2}[252 + 999]$
= $125 \times 1251 = 156375$.
