Answer 2

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi mate!!

Divisibility rule of 8 = If the last 3 digits of a number are divisible by 8 then the number is divisible by 8.

Number = 423987,

As, 987 isn't divisible by 8 we need to find the smallest number that should be added to it.

If we divide 987 by 8, then we get 123 as quotient and 3 as remainder.

If we make the remainder 8 then the number formed will be completely divisible by 8.

So, the number that's to be added is,

=> 8 - 3 => 5.

Adding 5 to 987 we get,

=> 987 + 5 = 992, which is divisible by 8 ( 124 ,times).

So, the number 423992 will be divisible by 8.

HENCE THE ANSWER IS 5.
