let us Taking

option (a) 485

add the number 485 to 859622=

now check whether this number is divisible by 456 or not.

=860107/456

=1886.199

So option (a) is not a possible number.

Taking,

option (b) 394

add the number 394 to 859622=

= 859622+394

=860016

now check whether this number is divisible by 456 or not.
