Multiples of 3 and 5
January 03, 2020 • ☕️ 1 min read
If we list all the natural numbers below 10 that are multiples of 3 or 5, we get 3, 5, 6 and 9. The sum of these multiples is 23.
Find the sum of all the multiples of 3 or 5 below 1000.
const solutionOne = () => {
const numberToUse = 1000;
const numberSummer = (num: number) => {
let multiples: number[] = [];
for (let i = 0; i < num; i++) {
if (i % 3 === 0 || i % 5 === 0) {
multiples = [...multiples, i];
}
}
return multiples.reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0);
};
return numberSummer(numberToUse);
};
