If P is a digit such that 6954P is divisible by 11, then P equals:
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 2.
A number is divisible by 11 if the difference between the sum of the digits 1 at odd places and the sum of the digits at even places is either 0 or a multiple of 11
Sum of Odd Places = 6 + 5 + P = 11 + P
Sum of Even Places = 9 + 4 = 13
Difference = (11 + P) - 13 = P - 2
If P = 2 then, P - 2 = 0
Therefore, the value of P is 2.
