A. 5 and 8

B. 7 and 8

C. 8 and 0

D. None of these

Answer: Option C

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Since 774958A96B is divisible by 8, so the number 96B must be divisible by 8.
So, B = 0, as 960 is divisible by 8.
Now, 774958A960 is divisible by 9.
So, (55 + A) must be divisible by 9.
This happens when A = 8
Hence, A = 8 and B = 0
