If each of the digits in the number given below is arranged in the descending order from left to right, what will be the sum of the digits that are second from the left and third from the right in the new number thus formed? (Left) 259812357 (Right)

A12

B11

C10

D8

Answer:

C. 10

Read Explanation:

The sum of the digits is 10.

1. Arrange the digits in descending order

  • Original number: 259812357

  • Descending order: 987553221

2. Identify the target digits

  • Second from the left: 8 (987553221)

  • Third from the right: 2 (987553221)

3. Calculate the sum

8+2=108 + 2 = 10
