23^2 = 529.
And 529x2 = 1058.
Given 1056, difference = 2.

Hi dude.
We have 4 choices in question paper.
Firs to add 1056+2 = 1058, 1058/23 = 0, we got no remaining in finally.
1056+3 = 1059, 1059/23 = 1 we gotta remaining.
1056+18 = 1074, 1074/23 = 16, same like got remaining.
Finally 1056+21 = 1077, 1077/23 = 19, same like got remaining.
Ans = 2.

@Nikitha please explain it.
But if we divide 1056 by 23, the remainder is 2.
So if 2 is added to the 1056, we get remainder 0.
Therefore solution is 2.
