Solution

The correct option is D 114345
99=11×9, where 11 and 9 are co-prime.
So if a number is divisible by 9 and 11, then it is also divisible by 99.
We know a number is divisible by 3 or 9 if the sum of all the digits of a number is a multiple of 3 or 9 and if the difference of the sum of its digits at odd places and sum of its digits at even places is either 0 or a number divisible by 11.
The only number 114345, is divisible by 9 & 11.
Hence, C will be correct.
