If the number 2893#$ is divisible by 5, then what will be the order of digits replacing # and $?

Options / विकल्प:

(a) 0, 2
(b) 2, 2
(c) 0, 0
(d) 2, 0


Solution / समाधान

Rule of divisibility by 5 / 5 से विभाज्यता का नियम:

A number is divisible by 5 if its last digit is 0 or 5.

कोई संख्या 5 से तभी विभाज्य होती है जब उसका अंतिम अंक 0 या 5 हो।

In the number 2893#$, the last digit is $.

Given options, only the values of $ are:

  • (a) $ = 2 ❌
  • (b) $ = 2 ❌
  • (c) $ = 0 ✅
  • (d) $ = 0 ✅

Thus, only options (c) and (d) satisfy divisibility by 5.

If we choose the usual convention of taking the smallest possible value for #, then:

# = 0, $ = 0

Number = 289300, which is divisible by 5.


Answer / उत्तर

(c) 0, 0

# = 0 and $ = 0.
अतः सही उत्तर (c) 0, 0 है।

Note: Based only on the divisibility rule of 5, option (d) i.e., (2, 0) would also make the number divisible by 5. The question appears incomplete or may contain a printing error.
