There are 200 natural numbers divisible by 5 between 1 and 1000.
Understanding the Calculation
To find the number of natural numbers divisible by 5 between 1 and 1000, we can use simple division. We divide 1000 by 5:
1000 รท 5 = 200
This calculation gives us the total number of multiples of 5 within the range of 1 to 1000, inclusive. Therefore, there are 200 such numbers.
Several sources corroborate this answer:
- Source 1: Toppr indicates there are 200 such numbers.
- Source 2: Doubtnut also confirms 200 natural numbers divisible by 5 between 1 and 1000.
- Source 3: Many other online resources (Quora, Shaalaa, etc.) support this finding, though some initially exclude 1000 from the count, leading to an incorrect answer of 199. This is because 1000 is included in the range "between 1 and 1000".
Examples
- 5, 10, 15, 20, ... 995, 1000 are all divisible by 5 and fall within the specified range.
