Answer:
test divisibility by 3= sum of all digit if the sum is divisible by 3 then the whole number is divisible by 3
now we start the answer,
sum of all digits = 5+4+y+1
sum of all digits = 9+y
if we put y = 0 it became 9 that is divisible by 3
if we put y = 3 it became 12 that is divisible by 3
if we put y = 6 it became 15 that is divisible by 3
if we put y = 9 it became 18 that is divisible by 3
so y = 0,3,6,9
