800 = 4*25*100
= 2^4*5^4
number of factors = 25
2^2, 5^2, 2^2*5^2, 2^4, 5^4, 2^4*5^4
so total 6???

the first four digit number divisble by 6 is 1002
last number is 9996
so (9996-1002)/6 + 1
= 8994/6 + 1
= 1499+1 = 1500

Name a prime number which ends with zero???

Find the sum of all 2 digits natural numbers which leave a remainder of 3 when divided by 7???

All consequtive natural numbers starting from 1 are written side by side till we write 100 digits. What is the remainder when this number is divided by 8???

@jashholmes
Please check the approach:-
Req. Sum;- (7*1 + 3) + (7*2 + 3) + (7*3 + 3).....(7*13 + 3)= (3*13) + 7*(1+2+3.....13)
