Question

Which one is the largest $5$ digit number among the given numbers which is exactly divisible by $8$?

• A. $98642$
• B. $99878$
• C. $99864$
• D. $99872$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $99872$

We know the divisibility rule for $8$ is given by:
If the last three digits of a number is divisible by $8$ or last three digits of the given number are zeros, then the number is divisible by $8$.

Checking the options, we can say $99864$ and $99872$ both are divisible by $8$ because the last three digits are divisible by $8$.

And the largest between them is $99872$
So, option $D$ is correct.
