Count integers in the range [A, B] that are not divisible by C and D
  • Difficulty Level : Basic
  • Last Updated : 06 Nov, 2019

Given four integers A, B, C and D. The task is to find the count of integers in the range [A, B] that are not divisible by C and D .

Examples:

Input: A = 4, B = 9, C = 2, D = 3
Output: 2
5 and 7 are such integers.

Input: A = 10, B = 50, C = 4, D = 6
Output: 28

Approach: First include all the integers in the range in the required answer i.e. B – A + 1. Then remove all the numbers which are divisible by C and D and finally add all the numbers which are divisible by both C and D.

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

// C++ implementation of the approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
// Function to return the count of
// integers from the range [a, b] that
// are not divisible by c and d
int countNums(int a, int b, int c, int d)
{
// Numbers which are divisible by c
int x = b / c - (a - 1) / c;
// Numbers which are divisible by d
int y = b / d - (a - 1) / d;
// Find lowest common factor of c and d
int k = (c * d) / __gcd(c, d);
// Numbers which are divisible by both c and d
int z = b / k - (a - 1) / k;
// Return the required answer
return b - a + 1 - x - y + z;
}
// Driver code
int main()
{
int a = 10, b = 50, c = 4, d = 6;
cout << countNums(a, b, c, d);
return 0;
}
Output:
28
