Find the sum of all natural numbers lying between 100 and 1000, which are multiples of 5.
Find the sum of all natural numbers lying between 100 and 1000, which are multiples of 5.

The regular numbers lying somewhere in the range of

    \[100\text{ }and\text{ }1000,\]

which are products of

    \[5,\text{ }are\text{ }105,\text{ }110,\text{ }\ldots \text{ }995.\]

It plainly frames an arrangement in A.P.

Where, the initial term,

    \[a\text{ }=\text{ }105\]

Normal contrast,

    \[d\text{ }=\text{ }5\]

Presently,

    \[\begin{array}{*{35}{l}} a\text{ }+\text{ }\left( n\text{ }-1 \right)d\text{ }=\text{ }995  \\ 105\text{ }+\text{ }\left( n\text{ }\text{ }1 \right)\left( 5 \right)\text{ }=\text{ }995  \\ 105\text{ }+\text{ }5n\text{ }\text{ }5\text{ }=\text{ }995  \\ 5n\text{ }=\text{ }995\text{ }\text{ }105\text{ }+\text{ }5\text{ }=\text{ }895  \\ n\text{ }=\text{ }895/5  \\ n\text{ }=\text{ }179  \\ \end{array}\]

We know,

    \[{{S}_{n}}~=\text{ }n/2\text{ }\left[ 2a\text{ }+\text{ }\left( n-1 \right)d \right]\]

In this manner, the amount of all regular numbers lying somewhere in the range of

    \[100\text{ }and\text{ }1000,\]

which are products of

    \[5,\text{ }is\text{ }98450\]
