  • A3
  • B2
  • C4
  • D6

Step-by-Step Solution

The last digit 4 is even, so the test for 2 always passes. For 3, the digit sum = 8 + 1 + blank + 4 = 13 + blank must be a multiple of 3. Trying blank = 0..9: 13+2 = 15, 13+5 = 18, 13+8 = 21 are multiples of 3. So blank can be 2, 5 or 8 — that is 3 values.
Answer: A) 3
