    Answer : Option A

    Explanation :

    132 = 4 x 3 x 11

    So, if the number divisible by all the three number 4, 3 and 11, then the number is divisible by 132 also.

    264  11,3,4 (/)

    396  11,3,4 (/)

    462  11,3 (X)

    792  11,3,4 (/)

    968  11,4 (X)

    2178  11,3 (X)

    5184  3,4 (X)

    6336  11,3,4 (/)

    Therefore the following numbers are divisible by 132 : 264, 396, 792 and 6336.

    Required number of number = 4.
