Answer 1

Answer:

for divisibility of 3 the sum of no. should divisible by 3

the sum of given no. is 8 so 1is the smallest no. which is when added in this than it will divisible by 3

so answer is 1

Answer 2

The smallest number to be added to make it divisible by 9 is 1.

Given:

The given number is 86237.

To Find:

We need to find the number to be added to the given number so that it is divisible by 9.

Solution:

We all need to know the divisibility rule of 9 to proceed with the problem.

The divisibility rule of 9 can be stated as " The sum of all the digits should be divisible by 9."

Now let us calculate the sum of the digits of the given number.

$= 8 + 6 + 2 + 3 + 7$

$= 26$

We want the number to be divisible by 9. The nearest number to 26 that is divisible by 9 is 27.

So we need to add 1 to the given number to make it divisible by 9.

Therefore the number to be added to the given number to make it divisible by 9 is 1.
