If X and Y are the two digits of the number 347XY such that the number is completely divisible by 80, then what is the value of X + Y?1). 22). 43). 64). 8

Answer»

For any number to be completely divisible by 80, it must be divisible by 8 and 10 both

So, for the number 347XY to be divisible by 10 the LAST digit must be a 0

This means, Y = 0 and also for any number to be divisible by 8 the last three digits of the number must be divisible by 8.

When 347X0/(10 × 8)

THUS gives 347X divides exactly by 8

So, the last three digits ie 47X must be divisible by 8

This means X = 2 is the only possible value

∴ X + Y = 2 + 0 = 2
