If P416 is divisible by 11, find the lowest natural value of P.A. 5B. 6C. 7D. 91. A2. C3. B4. D

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : D

Given:

A number P416 is given which is divisible by 11

Concept used:

A number is divisible by 11 if the difference between the sum of its odd digit and sum of its even digit is zero or divisible by 11.

Calculations:

According to the question, we have

P416 is divisible by 11, then the sum of its odd digit is

⇒ Sum of odd digits = P + 1

And, Sum of its even digits is

⇒ Sum of even digits = 6 + 4

⇒ Sum of even digits = 10

Now, Comparing them

⇒ P + 1 = 10

⇒ P = 10 - 1

⇒ P = 9

P = 9 is the smallest number which divides P416 by 11

∴ The value of P is 9.
