If 31z5 is a multiple of 9, where z is a digit, what is the value of z? You will find that there are two answers for the last problem. Why is this so?

Since, 31z5 is a multiple of 9.
Therefore according to the divisibility rule of 9, the sum of all the digits should be a multiple of 9.
Therefore, 3+1+z+5=9+z
=> 9+z=9
=> z=0
Hence 0 and 9 are two possible answers.
