A) 37804 B) 2015736
C) 36718 D) 53810
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 2015736

Explanation:

Divisibility rule for 24 is the number should be divisible by 3 and 8. As we know that 24 = 3 x 8

Now, 

Divisibility rule for 3 :

If the sum of the digits of a number is divisible by 3, then the number is divisible by 3.

 

Divisibility rule for 8 :

The last three digits of a number should be divisible by 8.

Hence, check for the given options,

A) 37804 => 804 is not divible by 8.

C) 36718 => 718 is not divible by 8.

D) 53810 => 810 is not divible by 8.

B) 2015736 => 736 is divisble by 8 and sum 2 + 0 + 1 + 5 + 7 + 3 + 6 = 24 which is divisible by 3.

 

Hence, 2015736 is divisible by 24.
