What is the greatest number between 450 and 500 which is divisible by 6?
The greatest number between 450 and 500 that is divisible by six is 498.
What number is evenly between 500 And 1000?
You can calculate this as follows: (500 + 1000) / 2
How many number between 100 and 500 are divisible by 4?
251
How many numbers between 100 to 500 are divisible by 6?
There are 67 numbers between 100 and 500 divisible by 6. The first number greater than 100 divisible by 6: 100 ÷ 6 = 16 r 4 → first number divisible by 6 is 6 × 17 = 102 Last number less than 500 divisible by 6: 500 ÷ 6 = 83 r 2 → last number divisible by 6 is 6 × 83 = 498 → all multiples of 6 between 17 × 6 and 83 × 6 inclusive are the numbers between 100 and 500 that are divisible by 6. → there are 83 - 17 + 1 = 67 such numbers.
How many numbers between 1 to 1000 is divisible by 2 or 5?
Interesting questions, here's how I look at it... Another way of asking the questions is how many multiples of 2 or 5 are there between 1 and 1000. Well if you look at '2' you can start counting the number of terms that 2 is multiplied by another number and their result is less then 1000. For instance, 2*1=2 (so that is one), 2*2=4 (so that is two), 2*3=6 (so that is three) and so on until you get to 2*500=1000. So any number greater then 500 would be larger than 1000. Now, notice that there would be 500 different numbers you could multiple 2 by up to 1000. So there must be 500 terms that are divisible by 2. We repeat this for 5: 5*1=5 (there is the first), 5*2=10 (there is the second)... 5*200=1000. Using the same method as before, you can conclude there are 200 terms that are divisible by 5. Here is where it gets interesting; it would be easy to just say well 500+200=700 terms. But this would not be correct, because each number can only be counted once so terms like 10, 20, 30 were counted for both 2 and 5. So how many terms were double counted, we fortunately we can use the same method as above realizing that this occurred for all number which are a multiple of the product of 2 and 5--so multiples of 10. How many multiples of 10 are there between 1 and 1000? Well, there are 100. So, how many numbers between 1 and 1000 are divisible by 2 or 5? It should be the number of terms divisible by 2 plus the number of terms divisible by 5 minus the number of duplicate terms. 500+200-100 = 600
