  1. $88$
  2. $667$
  3. $58$
  4. $47$

Solution

The number which is divisible by 2 from 1 to $1000$ $=\left[\frac{1000}{2}\right]=500$ The number which is divisible by 3 from 1 to 1000 $=\left[\frac{1000}{3}\right]=333$ The number which is divisible by 2 and 3 or divisible by 6 from 1 to 1000 is $\left[\frac{1000}{6}\right]=166$ The number divisible by 2 or 3 $=500+333-166=667$
