Answer 1

The digit that makes the number 866,4_6 divisible by 8 is 4, as the last three digits, 446, are divisible by 8 with no remainder.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine a digit that makes the number 866,4_6 divisible by 8, one must remember that for a number to be divisible by 8, the last three digits of that number must also be divisible by 8. Looking at the number 866,4_6, we need to focus on the last three digits: 4?6. By trying different digits (0-9) in place of the question mark, we find that the digit 4 makes the last three digits, 446, divisible by 8.

The divisibility rule of 8 requires that the number formed by the last three digits when divided by 8 leaves no remainder. Therefore, 866,446 is divisible by 8 because 446 ÷ 8 equals 55 with no remainder, indicating successful divisibility by 8.

Answer 2

866,416

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin, I would suggest you divide what you can use in the long division by 8. Once you have done that, you will place a 0 and carry down the 6. Now think carefully about any numbers that can be divided by 8 and have ended in 6. The number which pops up in my head first would be 16, thus for the number to be divisible by 8, the number will 866,416.
