@All.

I have a doubt after dividing 1058 by 23 we got 46.

After 46 how to calculate this, please someone explain me.

1056 mod 23 = 21,
23 - 21 = 2.

Since,
23 * 46 = 1058.
And the given number is 1056,
1058 - 1056 = 2 is the answer.

@All.

The solution is

Adding the first option 2 with 1054 then we get 1056 when it is divided by 23 it gives the perfect number 46.

Doing this same procedure for all the options we get the answer in point. So, the first option is correct.

What least number must be added to 1056
=1056+2= 1058.

So that the sum is completely divisible by 23?

1058/23= remainder is 0.

So, the answer is 2.

When we add to.. Then this value is divisible by 23.

First divide 1056 by 23.
Remainder = 21
If we want 1056 totally divisible by 23 so we must add 2 to remainder 21 to make it 23.
Now the remainder is zero.
So, the correct answer is 2.

@Payal.

It's 797.
When we add it to 5678 we get 35 as rem.
On dividing the sum by 460.

Let's make it simpler,

23*23 = 529.

To get a number closer to 1056.

529*2 = 1058.

What do we need to add to 1056 to make 1058?
1058-1056 = 2.
