Q. 11. Find the values of x x and y y such that the number 56129137X51Y 56129137 \mathrm{X} 51 \mathrm{Y} is divisible by 8888\newline(a) 22,22\newline(b) 44, 22\newline(c) 44,44\newline(d) none of these
  1. Divisibility by 8888: To be divisible by 8888, the number must be divisible by both 88 and 1111, since 88=8×1188 = 8 \times 11.
  2. Check Divisibility by 88: First, check divisibility by 88. The last three digits must be divisible by 88. So, 51Y51Y must be divisible by 88.
  3. ext{Y} = 22 for Divisibility by 88: Try ext{Y} = 22, then 512512 is divisible by 88 because 512ext÷8=64512 ext{ ÷ } 8 = 64, which is a whole number.
  4. Check Divisibility by 1111: Now, check divisibility by 1111. The difference between the sum of the digits in the odd positions and the sum of the digits in the even positions must be either 00 or a multiple of 1111.
  5. Add Digits in Odd Positions: Let's add the digits in the odd positions: 5+1+9+3+X+5+2=25+X5 + 1 + 9 + 3 + X + 5 + 2 = 25 + X.
  6. Add Digits in Even Positions: Now, add the digits in the even positions: 6+2+1+7+1+Y=17+Y6 + 2 + 1 + 7 + 1 + Y = 17 + Y.
  7. Difference for Divisibility by 1111: The difference is (25+X)(17+Y)(25 + X) - (17 + Y). For divisibility by 1111, this difference must be 00 or a multiple of 1111.
  8. Try X=4X = 4 and Y=2Y = 2: If we try X=4X = 4 and Y=2Y = 2, the difference is (25+4)(17+2)=2919=10(25 + 4) - (17 + 2) = 29 - 19 = 10, which is not a multiple of 1111.
