Answer 1

4 is the smallest number that should be added to 89357 to make it divisible by 9

Answer 2

Concept introduction:

The rule for divisibility by $9$ is analogous to the rule for divisibility by $3$. That is, if the number's sum of digits is divisible by $9$, the number is divisible by $9$as well.

Given:

Here the number that is given to us is $89357$.

To find:

We have to find  the smallest number that should be added to $89357$ to make it divisible by $9$.

Solution:

According to the question,

The current sum of the number is ->$32$.

So, if we add $4$ to this no. then it will be divisible by $9$ because $36$ is divisible by $9$.

Final answer:

So, the final answer of the question is -> $4$.
