The correct answer is option (C) 2256.
GIVEN
Divisor = 6
Numbers - 4322, 3122, 2256, 1640
TO FIND
Which of the given numbers are divisible by 6
SOLUTION
We can simply solve the problem as follows-
For a number that is completely divided by another number means that the remainder is zero.
For a number to be completely divisible by 6
Such numbers are also divisible by 2 and 3.
That is,
The number is divisible by 6 if -
- The last digit is even.
- The Sum of all digits is a multiple of 3.
A. Number 4322.
The last digit of 4322 is even.
Sum of digits = 4+3+2+2 = 11
Since, 11 is not a multiple of 3,
Therefore,
4322 is not exactly divisible by 6
B. Number 3122
The last digit of 3122 is even.
the sum of digits = 3+1+2+2 = 8
Since 8 is not a multiple of 3
Therefore,
3122 is not exactly divisible by 6.
C. Number 2256
The last digit of 2256 is even
Sum of digits = 2+2+5+6 = 15
Since 15 is a multiple of 3
So, both the condition is fulfilled.
Therefore,
2256 is exactly divisible by 6.
D. Number 1640
The last digit of 1640 is even
Sum of all the digits = 1+6+4+0 = 11.
Since 11 is not a multiple of 3
Therefore,
1640 is not exactly divisible by 6.
Hence, Out Of The Given Number, The Only Number Divisible By 6 Is 2256.
