Open in App
Solution

Since as we know that sum of all digits of a number is divisible by3 then the number is divisible by 3.

The sum of all digits of a number 189x44 is 1+8+9+x+4+4=x+26 where x is the smallest digit.

When we x=1 then 1+26=27which is divisible by 3.

Hence, the smallest digit to be placed in blank space is 1 then digit 1 to make .......6724 divisible by 3.
