Solution

The correct option is A

1680


The numbers which are divisible by 5 will form an A.P. with a common difference of 5.
The last term will be = 100
5 + (n-1)5 =100
n = 20.
Sum of the numbers =n2(2a+(n1)d)

Sum of numbers which are divisible by 5 = 1680.
The numbers which are divisible by 7 will form an A.P. with a
common difference of 7
The last term with be =98
7 + (n-1)7 =98
n = 14
Sum of the numbers which are divisible by 7 = 735
Sum of multiples of 35 between 1 and 100
Sum of numbers which are divisible by 5 or 7 = 1680 + 735 -105
=2310.
