Write the smallest digit and the largest digit in the blanks space of

1.	Write the smallest digit and the largest digit in the blanks space of each of the following numbers so that the number formed is divisibly by 3:(a) __________ 6724 (b) 4765 __________ 2
Answer» (a) We know that a number is divisible by 3 if the sum of all digits is divisible by 3. Therefore, Smallest digit : 2 --> 26724 = 2 + 6 + 7 + 2 + 4 = 21 Largest digit : 8 --> 86724 = 8 + 6 + 7 + 2 + 4 = 27 (b) We know that a number is divisible by 3 if the sum of all digits is divisible by 3. Therefore, Smallest digit : 0 --> 476502 = 4 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 0 + 2 = 24 Largest digit : 9 --> 476592 = 4 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 0 + 2 = 33

Write the smallest digit and the largest digit in the blanks space of each of the following numbers so that the number formed is divisibly by 3:(a) 6724 (b) 4765 2

Answer»

(a) We know that a number is divisible by 3 if the sum of all digits is divisible by 3.

Therefore, Smallest digit : 2 --> 26724 = 2 + 6 + 7 + 2 + 4 = 21

Largest digit : 8 --> 86724 = 8 + 6 + 7 + 2 + 4 = 27

(b) We know that a number is divisible by 3 if the sum of all digits is divisible by 3.

Therefore, Smallest digit : 0 --> 476502 = 4 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 0 + 2 = 24

Largest digit : 9 --> 476592 = 4 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 0 + 2 = 33
