We will tackle the general case first. What is the sum of all positive integers less than 1000 ending in a digit n?

The numbers must be of the form 10m+n where 0m99.Therefore, the answer will be 99m=0(10m+n)=100n+49500.

 

Hence, the answer to your original question will be 4(49500)+100(3+4+6+9)=200200.
