A number is divisible by 11 if the difference of the sum of digits at odd and even places be either zero or multiple of 11.
Correct Option: D
A number is divisible by 11 if the difference of the sum of digits at odd and even places be either zero or multiple of 11. If the middle digit be 4, then 24442 or 244442 etc are divisible by 11.

n2(n2–1) = n2 (n + 1) (n – 1)
Now, we put values n = 2, 3..... When n = 2
∴ n2(n2 –1) = 4 × 3 × 1 = 12, which is a multiple of 12Correct Option: B
n2(n2–1) = n2 (n + 1) (n – 1)
Now, we put values n = 2, 3..... When n = 2
∴ n2(n2 –1) = 4 × 3 × 1 = 12, which is a multiple of 12
When n = 3.
n2(n2 –1) = 9 × 4 × 2 = 72,
which is also a multiple of 12. etc.

Let the unit digit be p and ten’s digit be q.
∴ Number = 1000q + 100p + 10q + p
Number = 1010q + 101p = 101(10q + p)Correct Option: D
Let the unit digit be p and ten’s digit be q.
∴ Number = 1000q + 100p + 10q + p
Number = 1010q + 101p = 101(10q + p)
Clearly, this number is divisible by 101, which is the smallest three-digit prime number.

For n = 1
n4 + 6n3 +11n2 + 6n + 24
⇒ n4 + 6n3 +11n2 + 6n + 24 = 1 + 6 + 11 + 6 + 24 = 48
For n = 2
n4 + 6n3 +11n2 + 6n + 24Correct Option: D
For n = 1
n4 + 6n3 +11n2 + 6n + 24
⇒ n4 + 6n3 +11n2 + 6n + 24 = 1 + 6 + 11 + 6 + 24 = 48
For n = 2
n4 + 6n3 +11n2 + 6n + 24 = 16 + 48 + 44 + 12 + 24
⇒ n4 + 6n3 +11n2 + 6n + 24 = 144 , which is divisible by 48.
Clearly, 48 is the required number.
