Solution

Let's solve this step by step:

Step 1: Since Raj distributed N coins equally among his three children, N must be divisible by 3.

Step 2: The number formed by reversing the digits of N is a three-digit number, let's call it M.

Step 3: According to the problem, the last digit of the sum of N and M is 9. This means that the units digit of N and M must add up to 9 or 19.

Step 4: Since N and M are three-digit numbers, the possible pairs for the units digits are (1,8), (2,7), (3,6), (4,5), (5,4), (6,3), (7,2), and (8,1).

Step 5: Now, we need to find the values of N between 400 and 999 that satisfy these conditions.

Step 6: The possible values of N are 405, 414, 423, 432, 441, 450, 504, 513, 522, 531, 540, 603, 612, 621, 630, 702, 711, 720, 801, and 810.

Step 7: So, there are 20 possible values for N between 400 and 999.
