    The question asks for the sum of the remainders when the first 100 natural numbers are divided by 9. Dividing consecutive integers by 9 cycles through the remainders 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. Over 100 numbers, each remainder will occur approximately 100/9 = 11 times. The sum of the first 9 integers is 45. Therefore, the sum of the remainders is 100 * 45 / 9 = 401.
