Correct answer and explanation

Correct answer: 6, 8

Explanation: ✅ Correct Answer: B) 6, 8 📚 Explanation: To solve the multiplication, we test the digits: 6789 multiplied by 5 equals 33945. By checking each place value: 5x9=45 (5 stays, 4 carry), 5x8=40 (+4=44, 4 stays, 4 carry), 5x7=35 (+4=39, 9 stays, 3 carry). Finally, 5x6=30 (+3=33). This confirms that the missing digits at the first and third positions are 6 and 8 respectively. This puzzle tests basic arithmetic and place value logic.
