Count of all even numbers in the range [L, R] whose sum of digits is divisible by 3

Given two integers L and R. The task is to find the count of all even numbers in the range [L, R] whose sum of digits is divisible by 3.

Examples:

Input: L = 18, R = 36
Output: 4
18, 24, 30, 36 are the only numbers in the range [18, 36] which are even and whose sum of digits is divisible by 3.

Input: L = 7, R = 11
Output: 0
There is no number in the range [7, 11] which is even and whose sum of digits is divisible by 3.

Recommended: Please try your approach on {IDE} first, before moving on to the solution.

Naive approach: Initialize count = 0 and for every number in the range [L, R], check if the number is divisible by 2 and sum of its digits is divisible by 3. If yes then increment the count. Print the count in the end.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ implementation of the approach 
#include <bits/stdc++.h> 
using namespace std; 
  
// Function to return the 
// sum of digits of x 
int sumOfDigits(int x) 
{ 
    int sum = 0; 
    while (x != 0) { 
        sum += x % 10; 
        x = x / 10; 
    } 
    return sum; 
} 
  
// Function to return the count 
// of required numbers 
int countNumbers(int l, int r) 
{ 
    int count = 0; 
    for (int i = l; i <= r; i++) { 
  
        // If i is divisible by 2 and 
        // sum of digits of i is divisible by 3 
        if (i % 2 == 0 && sumOfDigits(i) % 3 == 0) 
            count++; 
    } 
  
    // Return the required count 
    return count; 
} 
  
// Driver code

Time Complexity: O(r – l)

Efficient approach:

We have to check that the number is divisible by 2.
We have to check that the sum of digit is divisible by 3 which means that the number is divisible by 3.

So overall we have to check if a number is divisible by both 2 and 3, and since both 2 and 3 are co prime so we just have to check if a number is divisible by their product i.e. 6.
