All except 427 are divisible by 11.
396/11=36 671/11=61.
462/11=42. 264/11=24.
572/11=52.
But 427 is not divisible by 11.
So, the answer is opt. (b).
396/11=36 671/11=61.
462/11=42. 264/11=24.
572/11=52.
But 427 is not divisible by 11.
So, the answer is opt. (b).

Here divisible by 3 trick is not working because 572, 427 & 671 are not divisible by 3.
TRICK 1: all digit divisible by 11 except 427,
TRICK 2: middle digit is the sum of other 2,
TRICK 3: all numbers , digit sum is even except 427 = 4+2+7 =13,
TRICK 1: all digit divisible by 11 except 427,
TRICK 2: middle digit is the sum of other 2,
TRICK 3: all numbers , digit sum is even except 427 = 4+2+7 =13,

(3+9+6) = 18 Even.
(4+6+2) = 12 Even.
(5+7+2) = 14 Even.
(4+2+7) = 13 * Odd *
(6+7+1) = 14 Even.
(2+6+4) = 12 Even.
So,, option B 427 is the correct option.
(4+6+2) = 12 Even.
(5+7+2) = 14 Even.
(4+2+7) = 13 * Odd *
(6+7+1) = 14 Even.
(2+6+4) = 12 Even.
So,, option B 427 is the correct option.

@All
As per my logic;
396 ------>3+6=9.
427-----> 4+7=11 but here we have 2 in where it should be eleven in the 2nd digit apply this logic.
