Question

This question is based on the five, four-digit numbers given below.
(Left) 6338 5345 4127 7253 6176 (Right)
(Example: 697 - first digit = 6, second digit = 9, third digit = 7)

B.

Three

C.

Five

D.

Two

Correct option is D

Given:(Left) 6338 5345 4127 7253 6176 (Right)
Explanation: Subtract 3 from the first digit of each number -
6338\rightarrow​6 - 3 = 3 (Divisible by 3)
5345\rightarrow​5 - 3 = 2 (not divisible by 3)
4127\rightarrow​4 - 3 = 1 (not divisible by 3)​
7253\rightarrow​7 - 3 = 4 (not divisible by 3)​
6176\rightarrow​6 - 3 = 3 (Divisible by 3)
So, there are only 2 numbers such numbers.
Thus, the correct answer is (d).
