Correct Answer: 6
Solution :
A number is divisible by 9 if the sum of all digits is divisible by 9.
Number = 8x5215
The sum of all digit = (8 + x + 5 + 2 + 1 + 5) = (21 + x)
Nearest multiple of 9 = 27
To make the number divisible by 9 then we have to replace the x by 6
∴ The least value of x is 6.
Hence, the correct answer is 6.
