  • Options
  • A. 8888
  • B. 9999
  • C. 9944
  • D. 9988

  • Correct Answer
  • 9944 

    Explanation

    To find the largest 4 digit number exactly divisible by 88,

    We should divide the largest possible 4 digit number by 88, and if we get any remainder than subtract it from that largest number.

    The largest possible 4 digit number is 9999

    Now,

     

    88) 9999 (113
          88
      _______
          119
            88
      _______
            319
            264
      _______
              55
      _______

     

    Therefore, the largest 4 digit number exactly divisible by 88 is given by

    9999 - 55 = 9944.
