Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. 1,234 has digit sum 10, so it leaves remainder 1 on division by 9.

  2. 5,678 has digit sum 26, so it leaves remainder 8.

  3. Product of remainders = 1×8=81 \times 8 = 8, so the remainder is 8.

Worth noting

Adding the remainders (1+8=91 + 8 = 9, remainder 0) is the rule for a sum, not a product.
