Correct answer: 5143

  1. Count all 4-digit numbers

The 4-digit numbers run from 100010001000 to 999999999999.

So, total number of 4-digit numbers is 9999−1000+1=9000.9999-1000+1=9000.9999−1000+1=9000.

  1. Count 4-digit multiples of 333

We need multiples of 333 between 100010001000 and 999999999999.

  • First multiple of 333 greater than or equal to 100010001000 is 100210021002.
  • Last multiple of 333 less than or equal to 999999999999 is 999999999999.

This is an AP: 1002,1005,1008,…,99991002, 1005, 1008, \dots, 99991002,1005,1008,…,9999 with common difference 333.

Number of terms is 9999−10023+1=89973+1=2999+1=3000.\frac{9999-1002}{3}+1=\frac{8997}{3}+1=2999+1=3000.39999−1002​+1=38997​+1=2999+1=3000.

So, number of 4-digit multiples of 333 is 3000.3000.3000.

  1. Count 4-digit multiples of 777

We need multiples of 777 between 100010001000 and 999999999999.

  • First multiple of 777 greater than or equal to 100010001000 is 1001=7×1431001=7\times 1431001=7×143.
  • Last multiple of 777 less than or equal to 999999999999 is 9996=7×14289996=7\times 14289996=7×1428.

Thus the multiples are 1001,1008,1015,…,99961001, 1008, 1015, \dots, 99961001,1008,1015,…,9996

Number of such multiples is 1428−143+1=1286.1428-143+1=1286.1428−143+1=1286.

So, number of 4-digit multiples of 777 is 1286.1286.1286.

  1. Count 4-digit multiples of both 333 and 777

A number divisible by both 333 and 777 must be divisible by lcm⁡(3,7)=21.\operatorname{lcm}(3,7)=21.lcm(3,7)=21.

We need 4-digit multiples of 212121.

  • First multiple of 212121 greater than or equal to 100010001000 is 1008=21×481008=21\times 481008=21×48.
  • Last multiple of 212121 less than or equal to 999999999999 is 9996=21×4769996=21\times 4769996=21×476.

Hence the number of 4-digit multiples of 212121 is 476−48+1=429.476-48+1=429.476−48+1=429.

  1. Apply inclusion-exclusion principle

Number of 4-digit numbers that are multiples of 333 or 777 is 3000+1286−429=3857.3000+1286-429=3857.3000+1286−429=3857.

Therefore, the numbers that are neither multiples of 333 nor multiples of 777 are 9000−3857=5143.9000-3857=5143.9000−3857=5143.

  1. Final Answer

5143\boxed{5143}5143​

The derived answer matches the stored correct answer.
