Which of the following number is divisible by 24 ?
Options:
A .  35718
B .  63810
C .  537804
D .  3125736
E .  None of these
Answer: Option D 24 = 3 × 8, where 3 and 8 co-prime Clearly, 35718 is not divisible by 8, as 718 is not divisible by 8 Similarly, 63810 is not divisible by 8 and 537804 is not divisible by 8 Consider option (D), Sum of digits = (3 + 1 + 2 + 5 + 7 + 3 + 6) = 27, which is divisible by 3 Also, 736 is divisible by 8 ∴ 3125736 is divisible by (3 × 8), i.e., 24
