Explanatory Answer

Method of solving this CAT Quantitative Ability Question from Number System question

(c) Total even nos. between 100 and 200 (including 100 and 200) = 51

Even nos. divisible by 7 = 7

Even nos. divisible by 9 = 6

There is a common no. divisible both by 7 and 9 = 126

Hence total nos. which are divisible neither

by 7 nor by 9 = 7 + 6 - 1 = 12

∴ Even integers n, (100 ≤ n ≤ 200) are divisible neither by 7 nor by 9 = 51– 12 = 39
