    The number of two digit numbers exactly divisible by 3 is

    A)  33                   

    B)  32      

    C)  31                   

    D)  30

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] Two digits numbers which are divisible by 3 are 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, ____, 99. Now, this is an A.P where a = 12, d = 3 and \[{{a}_{n}}=99.\] As we know, \[{{a}_{n}}=a+(n-1)d\] \[\Rightarrow \]   \[99=12+\left( n-1 \right)3=9+3n\] \[\Rightarrow \]   90 = 3n \[\Rightarrow \]   n = 30. Hence, there are 30 numbers which are divisible by 3.
