Question

What will the quotient be if the largest even number formed using the digits given below is completely divided by 12?

0, 9, 8, 4

• A. 820
• B. 720
• C. 745
• D. 408

Answer 1

The correct option is A 820

Arrange the given digits in descending order.
9 > 8 > 4 > 0
All numbers ending with 2, 4, 6, or 8 are even numbers.
So, the largest even number formed using the given digits is 9840.
Dividend = 9840
Divisor = 12
9840 ÷ 12 = ?
The expanded form of 9840 as the sum of the place values of the digits = 9,000 + 800 + 40


9840 ÷ 12 = 700 + 100 + 20 = 820
Hence, the quotient will be 820.
