Which digits should come in the place of x and y, respectively, if the number 62684xy is divisible by both 8 and 5?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 4 and 0.
To make it divisible by 5 the value of y must be 0 or 5
But to make it divisible by 8, the value of y must be 0
So, the number becomes 62684x0
Now, the last 3 digits are 4x0
To make it divisible by 8 the value of x = 0, 4, or 8
So, as per the given options, the most suitable values for x and y are 4 and 0.
