Let me to know the calculation process.
Ans.101


Hi, and welcome to Gmat Club! Below is a solution for your problem:

\(# \ of \ multiples \ of \ x \ in \ the \ range = \frac{Last \ multiple \ of \ x \ in \ the \ range \ - \ First \ multiple \ of \ x \ in \ the \ range}{x}+1\).

For our original question we would have: \(\frac{2,000-1,000}{10}+1=101\).

Hope it helps.

My attempt:

1000 - 1100 -- 11
1110 - 1200 -- 10
1210 - 1300 -- 10

1X10 - 1(X+1)00 -- 10

X - 3, 4, 5, 6 ,7 ,8, 9.

Sum them up - 101.

In general the formula for any series where "d" is the increment or difference between two terms to find the nth term =
An= A1+ (n-1)d
Now we know An =2000
A1=1000
d=10
2000=1000+(n-1)10
=101

OR
Use this
( last -first )/ increment + 1

As already discussed, the method is [(Last-First)/Increment ]+1

If you are refering to mgmat by any chance, this is discussed in Chap4 of Number properties

Hi, and welcome to Gmat Club! Below is a solution for your problem:

\(# \ of \ multiples \ of \ x \ in \ the \ range = \frac{Last \ multiple \ of \ x \ in \ the \ range \ - \ First \ multiple \ of \ x \ in \ the \ range}{x}+1\).

For our original question we would have: \(\frac{2,000-1,000}{10}+1=101\).

Check this: https://gmatclub.com/forum/totally-basic ... 20multiple

Hope it helps.


Hi Bunuel, Thanks for the explanation. However, if the question would have been that how many multiples of 5 are there between -7 and 37, inclusive? Will we consider the last number to be 35 and the first number to be -5?

How many multiples of 5 are there between -7 and 37, inclusive?

The first multiple is -5 and the last multiple is 35, so the answer is (35 - (-5))/5 + 1 = 9:
-5, 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35.

How many multiples of 5 are there between -7 and 37, inclusive?

The first multiple is -5 and the last multiple is 35, so the answer is (35 - (-5))/5 + 1 = 9:
-5, 0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35.

Thanks. I got it right. Now it's clear.
