Solution

We know that, a number is divisible by 11, if the difference of sum of digits at even and odd places is either zero or divisible by 11.
(a) We have, 5335
Sum of digits at even places from the right = 3 + 5 = 8
Sum of digits at odd places from the right = 5 + 3 = 8
So, difference = 8 - 8 = 0
Hence, it is divisible by 11.
(b) We have, 9020814
Sum of digits at even places = 1 + 0 + 0 = 1
Sum of digits at odd places from the right = 4 + 8 + 2 + 9 = 23
So, difference = 23 - 1 = 22 (divisible by 11)
Hence, it is divisible by 11.
