The correct Answer is:
To determine how many of the given numbers are divisible by 3 but not by 10, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Check divisibility by 3 A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3. We will calculate the sum of the digits for each number and check if it is divisible by 3. 1. **2133**: - Sum of digits = 2 + 1 + 3 + 3 = 9 (divisible by 3) 2. **2343**: - Sum of digits = 2 + 3 + 4 + 3 = 12 (divisible by 3) 3. **3474**: - Sum of digits = 3 + 4 + 7 + 4 = 18 (divisible by 3) 4. **4131**: - Sum of digits = 4 + 1 + 3 + 1 = 9 (divisible by 3) 5. **5286**: - Sum of digits = 5 + 2 + 8 + 6 = 21 (divisible by 3) 6. **5340**: - Sum of digits = 5 + 3 + 4 + 0 = 12 (divisible by 3) 7. **6330**: - Sum of digits = 6 + 3 + 3 + 0 = 12 (divisible by 3) 8. **7347**: - Sum of digits = 7 + 3 + 4 + 7 = 21 (divisible by 3) 9. **8110**: - Sum of digits = 8 + 1 + 1 + 0 = 10 (not divisible by 3) 10. **9276**: - Sum of digits = 9 + 2 + 7 + 6 = 24 (divisible by 3) ### Step 2: Check divisibility by 10 A number is divisible by 10 if its last digit is 0. We will check the last digit of each number that is divisible by 3. - **2133**: Last digit is 3 (not divisible by 10) - **2343**: Last digit is 3 (not divisible by 10) - **3474**: Last digit is 4 (not divisible by 10) - **4131**: Last digit is 1 (not divisible by 10) - **5286**: Last digit is 6 (not divisible by 10) - **5340**: Last digit is 0 (divisible by 10) - **6330**: Last digit is 0 (divisible by 10) - **7347**: Last digit is 7 (not divisible by 10) - **8110**: Last digit is 0 (divisible by 10) - **9276**: Last digit is 6 (not divisible by 10) ### Step 3: Count the numbers divisible by 3 but not by 10 From the above checks, the numbers that are divisible by 3 but not by 10 are: - 2133 - 2343 - 3474 - 4131 - 5286 - 7347 - 9276 ### Final Count There are **7 numbers** that are divisible by 3 but not by 10. ### Summary The total count of numbers divisible by 3 but not by 10 is **7**. ---
