Solution

We know that A number is divisible by 9, if the sum of the digits of the given number is divisible by 9.

Here, adding the digits of the given number we get 2+4+1+2+7+9=25. But if we add 2 to the given number, then the number formed will be 27 which is divisible by 9.

Therefore, a digit in the blank space will be 2.
