find the sum of all three digits number which leave the remainder 2 when divided by 5.
Three digit numbers which leave the remainder 2 when divided by 5 are 102, 107, 112,......., 997.
102, 107, 112,......, 997 is an A.P
First term of the A.P, a = 102
Common different of the A.P, d = 5
Let 997 be the nth term of the A.P.
an = a + (n – 1) d
∴ 102 + (n – 1) × 5 = 997
⇒ 5 (n – 1) = 997 – 102 = 895
⇒ (n – 1) = 179
⇒ n = 180
