Answer:

600Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

In electrical systems of alternating current, the harmonics are, as in acoustics, frequencies multiples of the fundamental working frequency of the system and whose amplitude decreases as the multiple increases. For example, if we have systems fed by the 50 Hz network, harmonics of 100, 150, 200, etc. may appear.

In our case having a fundamental wave of 100Hz, I can have harmonics of 200,300,400, ..., 600Hz
