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

So if 2 is added to the 1056, we get remainder 0.
Therefore solution is 2.

If we do 1056/23. Then remainder = 21.
= 23-21 = 2.
Because to make 23 we have to add 2 in remainder. So we can do 23/23 which is 0.
= 23-21 = 2.

Digital sum method works here:
1056+2 = 1058--- 5 (digital sum).
1056+18 = 1074---3.
1056+3 = 1059-- 6.
1077+21 = 1098--9.
And the digital sum of 23 is 5. So option (A) is correct.
