What least value must be assigned to '*' so that the number 63576*2 is divisible by 8?

Answer: C

For a number to be divisible by 8, the number formed by its last three digits must be divisible by 8. Here, the number is 6*2.

Let's check values for *:

If * = 1, we have 612. \(612 \div 8 = 76.5\) (Not divisible)

If * = 2, we have 622. \(622 \div 8 = 77.75\) (Not divisible)

If * = 3, we have 632. \(632 \div 8 = 79\) (Divisible)

The least value is 3.
