(i) 76 M 91

The given number = 76 M 91

Sum of its given digits = 7 + 6 + 9 + 1 

= 23

The number next to 23, which is divisible by 9 is 27

Required smallest number = 27 – 23 

= 4

(ii) 77548 M

The given number = 77548 M

Sum of its given digits = 7 + 7 + 5 + 4 + 8 

= 31

The number next to 31, which is divisible by 9 is 36.

Required smallest number = 36 – 31 

= 5

(iii) 627 M 9

The given number = 627 M 9

Sum of its given digits = 6 + 2 + 7 + 9 

= 24

The number next to 24, which is divisible by 9 is 27

Required smallest number = 27 – 24 

= 3
