Solution :-
We know that,
- When sum of all digits is divisible by 3 , the given number is divisible by 3 .
- When last two digits of a number is divisible by 4 , the given number is divisible by 4 .
- When a number is divisible by 3 and 4 both , the given number is also divisible by 12 .
So, checking for 4 :-
→ 696*12 = Last two digits 12 = 12 ÷ 4 = 0 remainder .
since last two digits are divisible by 4 .Therefore 696*12 is divisible by 4 .
checking for 3 :-
→ (6 + 9 + 6 + * + 1 + 2) ÷ 3
→ (24 + * ) ÷ 3
when we put * = 0,
→ (24 + 0) ÷ 3
→ 24 ÷ 3 = Remainder 0 .
As sum of digits is divisible by 3 , the number 696012 is also divisible by 3 .
Therefore, we can conclude that, when 696012 is divisible by 3 and 4 both, it is also divisible by 12 .
Hence, smallest digit that should be replaced by * is equal to 0 .
