Solution

Here S={4,6,9}

And T={9,10,11,,1000}.

We have to find all numbers in the form of
4x+6y+9z, where x,y,z {0,1,2,}.

If a and b are coprime number then the least
number from which all the number more than or equal to it can be express as ax+by where x,y {0,1,2,} is (a1) (b1).

Then for 6y+9z=3(2y+3z)

All the number from (21)(31)=2 and above can be express as 2x+3z (say t).

Now 4x+6y+9z=4x+3(t+2)

=4x+3t+6

again by same rule 4x+3t, all the number from (41)(31)=6 and above can be express from 4x+3t.

Then 4x+6y+9z express all the numbers from 12 and above.

again 9 and 10 can be express in form 4x+6y+9z.

Then set A={9,10,12,13,,1000}.

Then TA={11}

Only one element 11 is there.

Sum of elements of TA=11
