CorrectNot quiteAnswer C

Correct answer: C

Explanation

  1. A number is divisible by 3 when its digit sum is a multiple of 3.

  2. 7+4+5=167 + 4 + 5 = 16; the next multiple of 3 is 18.

  3. The smallest digit is 18−16=218 - 16 = 2.

Worth noting

5 (digit sum 21) and 8 (digit sum 24) also work, but the question asks for the smallest.
