    Question

    If 519x238y is divisible by 72, then find (2x -

    4y).
    A -2 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 25 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C -8 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 14 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Divisibility by 8: Last 3 digits = 38y

    Try y = 4 → 384 ÷ 8 = 48 ✅

    Now check sum for divisibility by 9:

    5 + 1 + 9 + x + 2 + 3 + 8 + 4 = (32 + x)

    x = 4 → 36 ✅

    Required value = (2 × 4 - 4 × 4) = (8 - 16) = -8
