The number of positive integers not greater than 100, which are not divisible by 2, 3 or 5, is:

A. 18
B. 26
C. 31
D. 42
E. 43

#100: 100
#2: 100-2/2+1=100/2=50
#3: 96/3=33
#5: 100/5=20
#(2•3=6): 96/6=16
#(2•5=10): 100/10=10
#(3•5=15): 90/15=6
#(2•3•5=30): 90/30=3

three–overlapping sets [1]: Total=A+B+C-[intersection 2 sets]-2[intersection 3 sets]+none
[1] 100=(50+33+20)-(16+10+6-9)+2(3)+none
[1] 100=(103)-(23)+(6)+none… none=100-74=26

three–overlapping sets [2]: Total=A+B+C-[intersection 2 & 3 sets]+[intersection 3 sets]+none
[2] 100=(103)-(16+10+6)+3+none…
[2] 100=(103)-(32)+3+none… none=100-74=26

Answer (B).

A. 18
B. 26
C. 31
D. 42
E. 43

total integers which are divisible by 2 = 50 odd & 49 even
divisible by 3 = 33 ; 17 odd & 16 even
divisible by 5 = 20 ; 10 odd & 9 even

over lap of 3 & 5 at 15 * 45 and of all even integers

so total +ve integers <100 which are divisible by 2,3 or 5 = 49+17+8 ; 74
not divisible would be 100-74 ; 26
IMO B

Could not understand ur method.
Can u elaborate more ?

Sol: number divisible by 2,3 or 5 ends with: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 & 0.
that leaves only 1 & 7 between 1-10.
in 11-20: 11,13,17,19 - all prime numbers.. rest are divisible by 2,3,5
this means all prime # between 1-99 and 1 should be desired one.

with this logic: 1+ 25 primes = 26 ans.
Ans: B
