Solution

A natural number is divisible by 3 if and only if, the sum of the digits is divisible by 3
A natural number is divisible by 4 if and only if, the number formed by the last two digits is divisible by 4 or last two digits in the given number are zeros
NumbersDivisibility by 3 Divisibility by 4
(i)63712 6+3+7+1+2=19 is not divisible by 3.Hence 63712 is not divisible by 3 The last two digit is 12 is divisible by 4 since 4×3=12.Hence 63712 is divisible by 4
(ii)2314 2+3+1+4=10 is not divisible by 3.Hence 2314 is not divisible by 3 The last two digit is 14 is not divisible by 4 .Hence 23142 is not divisible by 4
(iii)78962 7+8+9+6+2=32 is not divisible by 3.Hence 78962 is not divisible by 3 The last two digit is 62 is not divisible by 4 .Hence 78962 is not divisible by 4
(iv)10038 1+0+0+3+8=12 is divisible by 3.Hence 10038 is divisible by 3 The last two digit is 38 is not divisible by 4 .Hence 10038 is not divisible by 4
(v)20701 2+0+7+0+1=10 is not divisible by 3.Hence 20701 is divisible by 3
The last two digit is 01 is not divisible by 4 .Hence 20701 is not divisible by 4
