Find the number of positive integers less than 601 that are not divisible by 4 or 5 or 6
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We have a universal set U of 600 elements (integer numbers from 1 to 600 inclusive).
Of them, 600/4 = 150 elements are divisible by 4 (subset F, from the word Four);
600/5 = 120 elements are divisible by 5 (subset V, from the word fiVe);
600/6 = 100 elements are divisible by 6 (subset X, from the word siX).
Of them, we have these in-pair intersections
600/(4*5) = 30 elements divisible by 4 and by 5 (intersection (F and V) );
600/(4*6) = 25 elements divisible by 4 and by 6 (intersection (F and X) );
600/(5*6) = 20 elements divisible by 5 and by 6 (intersection (V and X) ).
Of them, we have triple intersection
600/(3*4*5) = 10 elements divisible by 4, 5 and 6 (intersection (F and V and X) ).
Having it, we can calculate the number of elements in the union of the three subsets (F U V U X).
Use the formula for the number of elements in the union of any 3 subsets (inclusion-exclusion principle)
n(F U X U N) = n(F) + n(V) + n(X) - n(F and V) - n(F and X) - n(V and X) + n(F and V and X) =
= substitute the obtained numbers from above =
= 150 + 120 + 100 - 30 - 25 - 20 + 10 = 305.
The rest 600 - 305 = 295 integer numbers from 1 to 600 inclusive are not divisible NEITHER by 4, NOR by 5. NOR by 6.
ANSWER. There are 295 integer numbers from 1 and 600 (inclusive) that are NOT divisible NEITHER by 4, NOR by 5, NOR by 6.
Solved.
