Question

A 3-digit number 4a3 is added to another  3-digit number 984 to give a 4-digit number 13b7, which is divisible by 11. Then , (a +b) = ?


Options:
A .  10
B .  11
C .  12
D .  15
Answer: Option A

 4 a 3

 9 8 4         `rArr`  a + 8 = b `rArr`  b - a = 8

______

 13 b 7

Also, 13 b 7 is divisible by 11 `rArr` ( 7 + 3) - (b + 1) = (9 - b) `rArr` (9 - b) = 0 `rArr` b = 9.

`therefore`  (b = 9 and a = 1) `rArr` (a + b) = 10.
