Answer 1

The correct option is B

2 and 4

For a number to be divisible by 5, it should end with 0 or 5.

For a number to be divisible by 10 it should end with 0.

Every number divisible by 10 is divisible by 5, therefore we can only check for the divisibility by 10.

The numbers 567860 and 55650, have 0 in ones place. Hence, they are divisible by both 5 and 10.
