From that subtract the sum of all the numbers from 1 to 150 that are divisible by 3. Then subtract the sum of all the numbers from 1 to 147 (the last number before 150 that is divisible by 7) that are divisible by 7. Then calculate the sum of the numbers from 1 to 147 that are divisible by 21 and add them back because you have subtracted them twice -- once when you did the 3s and once when you did the 7s.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You can do your own arithmetic.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "John \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it \n" ); document.write( " ![]() \n" ); document.write( " |
