In the number 10,0AB, A and B represent the tens and units digits, respectively. If 11,0AB is divisible by 55, what is the greatest possible value of B × A?  Choose the correct choice from the following answers
A) 0 B) 5 C) 10 D) 15 E) 25

Rationale: you should notice that 55 * 2 = 110 so 11,000 is divisible by 55 : 55 * 200 = 11,000 ( or you can notice that 11,000 is obviously divisible by both 5 and 11 so by 55 ) - - > b * a = 0 * 0 = 0 . next number divisible by 55 is 11,000 + 55 = 11,055 : b * a = 5 * 5 = 15 ( next number wo n ' t have 110 as the first 3 digits so we have only two options 0 and 25 ) . answer : e . ! please post ps questions in the ps subforum : gmat - problem - solving - ps - 140 / please post ds questions in the ds subforum : gmat - data - sufficiency - ds - 141 / no posting of ps / ds questions is allowed in the mainmath forum . d
