Solution

A number is divisible by 11 if the difference of the sum of digits at even places and sum of digits at odd places is 0 or a multiple of 11.

Sum of digits at odd places is 1+7=8

Sum of digits at even places is 3+4+1=8

Difference is 8-8=0

So, if we write 0 in the space then it will be the smallest digit so that the number formed is divisible by given divisor.

As, we have to write a single digit so after 0 till 9 there will be no other number which could be placed to have a difference of 0 or a multiple of 11.

Therefore, the largest digit also will be 0
