  • Question
  • If a number 72k23l is divisible by 88. Then find value of k and l ?


  • Options
  • A. k=8 & l=2
  • B. k=7 & l=2
  • C. k=8 & l=3
  • D. k=7 & l=1

  • Correct Answer
  • k=7 & l=2 

    Explanation

    If a number to be divisile by 88, it should be divisible by both "8" and "11"

    Check for '8' :
    For a number to be divisible by "8", the last 3-digit should be divisible by "8"
    Here 72x23y --> last 3-digit is '23y'
    So y=2 [ (i.e) 232 is absolutely divisible by "8"]

    Chech for '11' :
    For a number to be divisible by "11" , sum of odd digits - sum of even digits should be divisible by "11"
    (7 + x + 3) - (2 + 2 + y)
    (7 + x + 3) - (2 + 2 + 2)
    (10 + x) - 6 should be divisible by "11"
    for x = 7
    => 17 - 6 = 11 [ which is absolutely divisible by "11"]

    So x = 7 , y= 2.
