Firstly what @Nikitha has explained is wrong. Because the remainder is 21 not 2. So please can somebody give me the answer why we did 23 - 21?

1056/23 = 45.91.
So round of the figure of the result that means 46.
Then 46 * 23 = 1058.
=> 1058 - 1056 = 2.
The answer is 2.

23 * 46 = 1058.
1058 - 1056 = 2.
1058 - 1056 = 2.

1+0+5+6 = 12 = 1+2 = 3.
So given divisor is 23=2+3=5.
So to make a dividend to multiple of 5, add 2 to 3, it gives 5.
