• A. $10$
• B. $12$
• C. $16$
• D. $18$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $10$

When the numbers from 1 to 24 divisible by 2 arranged in decreasing order, the numbers obtained are:

$24,22,20,18,16,14,12,10,8,6,4,2$

The number in first place is $24$

The number in second place is $22$

The number in third place is $20$

The number in forth place is $18$

The number in fifth place is $16$

The number in sixth place is $14$

The number in seventh place is $12$

The number in eighth place is $10$

Therefore $10$ will be in 8th place.
