Answer and explanation

Correct answer: 900

The three-digit natural numbers begin at 100 and end at 999, with both endpoints included. The number of integers in this inclusive interval is 999 − 100 + 1 = 900. Therefore, A is a finite set with 900 elements. The plus-one is necessary because both 100 and 999 are counted.
