उत्तर
\[\text{ It is given that } \overline{{35a64}} \text{ is a multiple of 3 }. \]
\[ \therefore (3 + 5 + a + 6 + 4) \text{ is a multiple of 3 }. \]
\[ \therefore (a + 18)\text{ is a multiple of 3} . \]
\[ \therefore (a + 18) = 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 . . . \]
\[\text{ But a is a digit of number }\overline{{35a64}} \text{. So, a can take value }0, 1, 2, 3, 4 . . . 9 . \]
\[a + 18 = 18 \Rightarrow a = 0\]
\[a + 18 = 21 \Rightarrow a = 3\]
\[a + 18 = 24 \Rightarrow a = 6\]
\[a + 18 = 27 \Rightarrow a = 9\]
\[ \therefore a = 0, 3, 6, 9\]

If 24x is a multiple of 3, where x is a digit, what is the value of x?
(Since 24x is a multiple of 3, its sum of digits 6 + x is a multiple of 3; so 6 + x is one of these numbers: 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18…. But since x is a digit, it can only be that 6 + x = 6 or 9 or 12 or 15. Therefore, x = 0 or 3 or 6 or 9. Thus, x can have any of four different values)
