JEE Main 2024 — 6 April, Shift 1 — Question 6

Let A={n∈[100,700]∩N:n\mathrm{A}=\{\mathrm{n} \in[100,700] \cap \mathrm{N}: \mathrm{n} is neither a multiple of 3 nor a multiple of 4}\}. Then the number of elements in A is

  1. Option A:

    300

    Correct
  2. Option B:

    280

  3. Option C:

    310

  4. Option D:

    290

Answer: A

Step-by-step solution

n(3)⇒\mathrm{n}(3) \Rightarrow multiple of 3

102, 105, 108………, 699

Tn=699=102+(n−1)(3)\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{n}}=699=102+(\mathrm{n}-1)(3)

n=200\mathrm{n}=200

n(3)=200\mathrm{n}(3)=200

∵n(4)⇒\because \mathrm{n}(4) \Rightarrow multiple of 4

100,104,108,….,700100,104,108, \ldots ., 700

Tn=700=100+(n−1)(4)\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{n}}=700=100+(\mathrm{n}-1)(4)

n=151\mathrm{n}=151

n(4)=151\mathrm{n}(4)=151

n(3∩4)⇒\mathrm{n}(3 \cap 4) \Rightarrow multiple of 3&43 \& 4 both $

108,120,132,….,696108,120,132, \ldots ., 696

Tn=696=108+(n−1)(12)\mathrm{T}_{\mathrm{n}}=696=108+(\mathrm{n}-1)(12)

n=50\mathrm{n}=50

n(3∩4)=50\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{n}(3 \cap 4)=50 & \end{aligned}

n(3∪4)=n(3)+n(4)−n(3∩4)=200+151−50=301\mathrm{n}(3 \cup 4)=\mathrm{n}(3)+\mathrm{n}(4)-\mathrm{n}(3 \cap 4) =200+151-50 =301

n(3∪4‾)=\mathrm{n}(\overline{3 \cup 4})= Total −n(3∪4)=-\mathrm{n}(3 \cup 4)= neither a multiple of 3 nor a multiple of 4

=601−301=300=601-301=300
