Solution

The correct option is D all of these
Let the number is 111111
A number is divisible by 7 if we double the last digit and subtract it from the remaining leading truncated number and the result is divisible by 7
so in 111111111112=11109which is divisible by 7
so 111111 is also divisible by 7
A number is divisible by 11 if we subtract the sum of odd digit number with sum of even digit number, we get 0 or any number that is divisible by 11
In 111111 (1+1+1)(1+1+1)=0
so 111111 is divisible by 11
A number is divisible by 13 if add four times the last digit to the remaining leading truncated number and the result is divisible by 13
in 11111111111+4=11115which is divisible by 13
so 111111 is also divisible by 13
Hence any number like555555=5(111111)
is also divisible by 7,11,13
So option D is answer
