The numbers between 100 and 500 that are divisible  by 7 are 105, 112, 119, 126, 133, 140, 147, …, 483, 490, 497.Let such numbers be n.Then,497=105+(n−1)×7; or n=57.The numbers between 100 and 500 that are divisible by 21 are 105, 126, 147, …, 483.Let such numbers be m.Then 483 = 105 + (m – 1) × 21; or m = 19.Hence, the required number = n – m = 57 – 19 = 38.
