Solution

(i) 6525
Here, 6 + 5+ * + 5 = 16 + * should be a multiple of 9.
To be divisible by 9, the least value of * should be 2, i.e., 16 + 2 = 18, which is a multiple of 9.
∴ * =2


(ii) 27135
Here, 2 + * + 1 + 3 + 5 = 11 + * should be a multiple of 9.
To be divisible by 9, the least value of * should be 7, i.e., 11 + 7 = 18, which is a multiple of 9.
∴ * = 7


(iii) 67023
Here, 6 + * + 7 + 0 + 2 = 15 + * should be a multiple of 9.
To be divisible by 9, the least value of * should be 3, i.e., 15 + 3 = 18, which is a multiple of 9.
∴ * = 3


(iv) 91467
Here, 9 + 1 * + 6 + 7 = 23 + * should be a multiple of 9.
To be divisible by 9, the least value of * should be 4, i.e., 23 + 4 = 27, which is a multiple of 9.
∴ * = 4


(v) 667881
Here, 6 + 6 + 7 + 8 + * + 1 = 28 + * should be a multiple of 9.
To be divisible by 9, the least value of * should be 8, i.e., 28 + 8 = 36, which is a multiple of 9.
∴ * = 8


(vi) 835686
Here, 8 + 3 + 5 + * + 8 + 6 = 30 + * should be a multiple of 9.
To be divisible of 9, the least value of * should be 6, i.e., 30 + 6 = 36, which is a multiple of 9.
∴ * = 6
