Detailed Solution

The given numbers are 70169308 and 11.
When the difference between the sum of digits present at odd places and sum of digits present at even places is zero or 11 then the number is divisible by 11.
Finding the sum of digits of odd places and even places,
8 + 3 + 6 + 0 = 17
0 + 9 + 1 + 7 = 17
Now, the difference between the sum of odd places and even places is,
17 – 17 = 0.
As we can see, the difference between the sum of odd places and even places is 0, so the number 70169308 is divisible by 11.
Therefore, the given statement is true and option 1 is correct.
