divisible by 8. Therefore 78y should be divisible by 8. Sol.
y should be 4 to complete the divisibility of the number . y =4
for a number divisible by 9, sum all the digit should be
divisible by 9
therefore 9+8+5+x+3+6+7+8+4 = 50+x
nearest digit is 54, which is divisible by 9 therefore x is 4.
Now (4x+5y) = 4× 4+5× 4 = 16+20 = 36
