      is the highest value of (k + l)?
      A 23 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 16 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 12 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Divisible by 12 ⇒ divisible by both 3 and 4

      Last two digits: ‘l2’ ⇒ l = 0, 2, 4, 6, 8

      Maximum l = 8

      Sum = 7 + k + 8 + 5 + 4 + 8 + 2 = 34 + k

      34 + k divisible by 3 → k = 2, 5, 8

      Max k = 8

      Max (k + l) = 8 + 8 = 16
