MCQ
Mark the correct alternative in the following:
$5*2$ is a three digit number with $*$ as a missing digit. If the number is divisible by $6,$ the missing digit is.
  • $2$
  • B
    $3$
  • C
    $6$
  • D
    $7$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$2$
A number divisible by $6$ must also be divisible by $3$ as $6$ is a multiple of $3.$
Sum of the given digits $= 5 + 2 = 7$
We know that multiple of $3$ greater than $7$ is $9.$
$\therefore 9 - 7 = 2$
Therefore, the required digit is $2.$
