Given:

Digit numbers = 3

Divisibility condition = divisible by 20

Concept:

Sum of arithmetic series

Solution:

⇒ The first three-digit number divisible by 20 is 100 and the last is 980

⇒ This forms an arithmetic series with first term (a) = 100, common difference (d) = 20 and last term (l) = 980

⇒ The sum of an arithmetic series = n/2 ×  (a + l), where n is the number of terms

⇒ Using n = (l - a)/d + 1, we get n = 45

⇒ Sum = 45/2 ×  (100 + 980) = 24300

Therefore, the sum of all three digits numbers divisible by 20 is 24300.
