I am getting the answer 17.

Let A=14 and B= 154.

Q= {15,16, 17...................153}

The nine multiples of Q are {28......140}.

The number of multiples of 7 between {28......................140} N=17. option d.

Lets Q's first number be 14
As per question, Q contains 9 multiples of 14 , so let Q's last number be 126. $$(14 * 9)$$
We have,
$$a_n$$ = $$a + (n-1)d$$

Then

126 = 14 + (n-1)7

Solving for n , we get n = 17

Hey

As per your approach you are missing 2 numbers here i.e. 21 and 147, both will be in the set and divisible by 7, hence the answer should be 19.

Thank you

Hi,

the Q has a straight logic..

7 is an odd number so its consecutives multiples will be even, odd, even,odd and so on..
and even multiple of 7 will mean multiple of 14..

now we have two ends of the set which are multiples of 14 or in other words even multiple of 7...
and between each set of consecutive even multiple of 7, there will be 1 odd multiple of 7..
so even multiple=9
odd multiple=9-1=8..
total 17 ans
D
