If 31z5 is a multiple of 9, where z is a digit, what is the value of z? You will find that there are two answers for the last problem. Why is this so?
उत्तर
If a number is a multiple of 9, then the sum of its digits will be divisible by 9.
Sum of digits of 31z5 = 3 + 1 + z + 5 = 9 + z
Hence, 9 + z should be a multiple of 9.
This is possible when 9 + z is any one of these numbers 0, 9, 18, 27, and so on …
However, since z is a single digit number, this sum can be either 9 or 18. Therefore, z should be either 0 or 9.
