The value of X - Y such that the eight-digit number 7448X24Y is divisible by both 8 and 9 is 7

<h3>How to determine the distinct digits X and Y?</h3>

The eight-digit number is given as:

7448X24Y

Also, from the question

The number is divisible by 8 and 9

When a number is divisible by 8, then the last three digits of that number would be divisible by 8.

When a number is divisible by 9, the sum of the digits of the number would be divisible by 9.

So, we have:

24Y is divisible by 8

The possible value of Y from the above statement is 0

This is so because 240 is divisible by 8

The sum of the digits of the number would be divisible by 9.

This means that:

7 + 4 + 4 + 8 + X + 2 + 4 + Y = 29 + X + Y

Substitute 0 for Y

29 + X + Y = 29 + X + 0

Evaluate the sum

29 + X + Y = 29 + X

36 is divided by 9

So, we have

29 + X = 36

Subtract 29 from both sides of the equation

X = 7

So, we have

X = 7 and Y = 0

X - Y is calculated as:

X - Y = 7 - 0

Evaluate the difference in the above equation

X - Y = 7

Hence, the value of X - Y such that the eight-digit number 7448X24Y is divisible by both 8 and 9 is 7

b 6

c 15

Step-by-step explanation:

101% 101/100 = 1 1/100

is 1  complete 100 grid and 1/100 of another grid so you will need 2 grids

589% 589/100 = 5 89/100

is 5 complete 100 grids and 89/100 of another grid so you will need 6 grids

1450% 1450/100 = 14 50/100

is 14 complete grids and 50/100 of another grid so you will need 15 grids
