Dividend = divisior * quotient + remainder.
So, 9999 = 88 * 113 + 55.
9999-55 = 88 * 113 = 9944 = 9944.
So, 9999 = 88 * 113 + 55.
9999-55 = 88 * 113 = 9944 = 9944.

113 x 88=9944 is the answer.

How it is correct? because above in the example no. 6 method is to split the number & then check the number either diveded by all or not.
And same method if we applied in this example (11*2*4) = 88.
So, 9988 is divided by all 11, 2, & 4.
Please anyone clarify this.
