Solution

The correct option is B

False


A number is divisible by 2 , if it is an even number.
Since 525 is not a even number, it is not divisible by 2

A number is divisible by 3, if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3. Here 5 + 2 + 5 = 12 , hence it is divisible by 3.

A number is divisible by 5 , if the ones place of the number is either 0 or 5, Hence the given number is divisible by 5.

A number is divisible by 9, if the sum of its digits is divisible by 9. Here 5 + 2 + 5 = 12. 12 is not divisible by 9. So 525 is not divisible by 9.

Hence the given statement is false
