Well, plug in all of the answer choices and divide it by 8 to test it. Any answer choices that don't come out as a decimal will be correct.

61,532,112/8=7,691,514

61,532,182/8=7691522.75

61,532,122/8=7691515.25

61,532,162/8=7691520.25

"1" was the only digit that didn't give us a decimal. All of the other ones cannot evenly be divided by 8, so the only correct answer is: 1

The divisible by 8 rule states that if the last three digits are divisible by 8, the entire number is divisible by 8. So to find the answer to this question plug in the different numbers given. The choice you should select here is 1, because 112 is divisible by 8 (giving you 14). Hope this helps.
