Answer:

Sum of all positive integers less than 400 and divisible by 5 is 15,800.

Step-by-step explanation:

TO FIND :

The sum of all positive integers less than 400 which are divisible by 5.

The set of positive integers I^+  =  1,2,3, 4,5,6,7,.........,,

Now, the number should be divisible by 5.

SO, the desired set of positive integers =  { 5,10,15,20,.......}

Again the numbers are LESS than 400.

So, the desired set of positive integers =  { 5,10,15,20,....... 385,390, 395}

Here, First term a  = 5, common difference d  = 4 and last term an = 395

a_n = a+ (n-1) d\\\implies 395 = 5 + (n-1) 5\\\implies 78 = n - 1 \implies n =  79

⇒There are total 79 terms in the series.

So, SUM OF 79 TERMS  =

S_n = \frac{n}{2} (a + a_n) \\\implis S_{79} = \frac{79}{2} (5 + 395)  = 15,800\\\implies S_{79} = 15,800

Hence, The sum of all positive integers less than 400 which are divisible by 5 is 15,800.

So, to figure out this problem you first need to solve for how much you have left after paying the base fee. Take the total ($84) and subtract by the base fee ($27). You will get 57 as your answer. Then, take $57 and divide it by $0.15 to get your answer. It is 380 minutes each month. The equation here is 84=27+0.15x.
