Question

If 15Z7 is a multiple of 3 where ‘Z’ is a digit, find the value of Z.

Answer 1

Answer:

Z= 2

Step-by-step explanation:

acc. to divisibility rule of 3

sum of digits should be the multiple of 3

therefore, we have 15Z7

1+5+Z+7= 13+Z

to make it multiple of 3 it should also come in table of 3

so after 13 it can be nearest to 15

15-13=Z

2=Z

hence answer is 2
