Best answer
Correct Answer - Option 4 : 150

Concept:

nth  term of A.P are a, a + d , a + 2d,  . . . .  ,a + (n - 1)d .

Tn = a + ( n - 1 ) d 

Where a = first term and d = common difference

Calculation:

Three-digit numbers that are divisible by 6 are 102, 108, 114,... 996.

The series of AP is  102, 108, 114,... 996.

As we know that , Tn = a + ( n - 1 ) d

⇒ 996 = 102 + ( n - 1 ) 6 

⇒ 894 = ( n- 1 ) 6

⇒ 149 = n - 1 

 n = 150

The correct option is 4
