What if the game was played till 900? How would your answers change?

Correct Answer

Step 1: Number of multiples of 3 from 1 to 900 = 900 ÷ 3 = 300.

Step 2: Number of multiples of 5 from 1 to 900 = 900 ÷ 5 = 180.

Step 3: Number of common multiples of 3 and 5 (multiples of 15) from 1 to 900 = 900 ÷ 15 = 60.

Answer: If played till 900: 'idli' would be said 300 times, 'vada' would be said 180 times, and 'idli-vada' would be said 60 times.

Explanation

Following the same logic: Multiples of 3 from 1 to 900 = 900 ÷ 3 = 300. Multiples of 5 from 1 to 900 = 900 ÷ 5 = 180. Common multiples (multiples of 15) from 1 to 900 = 900 ÷ 15 = 60.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: Number of multiples of 3 from 1 to 900 = 900 ÷ 3 = 300.

  2. Step 2: Number of multiples of 5 from 1 to 900 = 900 ÷ 5 = 180.

  3. Step 3: Number of common multiples of 3 and 5 (multiples of 15) from 1 to 900 = 900 ÷ 15 = 60.
