1. If A, B and C are all positive integers. and three digit number ABC - CBA is divisible by 7. How many different numbers are possible divisors for 7.


(Can any one suggest me good material for practice, which has more venn diagrams and tables.)

(100A+10B+C-100C-10B-A) is divisible by 7. Hence (99A-99C) is divisible by 7 or 99(A-C) is divisible by 7. The possibilities are A=9 and C=2 along with C=9 and A=2 or A=8 and C=1 along with A=1 and C=8. There are four numbers and nine possibilities for(A-C) turning into 0, i.e. 4+9=13 possibilities.
With (A-C)=0 we have one divisor (factor) and with (A-C)=2 we may have the following options: 9B2-2B9=693 has one factor 99. The same with every other number, e.g. 2B9-9B2=-693 has one factor -99. Hence total makes (4+1)=5 divisors (factors) out of which only 3 divisors will be different 0,99,-99

I understand the 4 different numbers and I understand the 9 possiblities that give 0 but what does the zeros have to do with being divisible by 7? So I dont understand why its not just 4 but 13

1. If A, B and C are all positive integers. and three digit number ABC - CBA is divisible by 7. How many different numbers are possible divisors for 7.

I reached till this step: 99 X (A - C)/7

this means that (A-C) has to be divisible by 7 as 99 is not divisible by 7

Hence 7 is a factor of (A - C).

Also A-C can be any number multiple of 7...

I did not understand beyond this step....

Guyzzz kindly help...
