Here, 12 a b 12ab is divisible by 2 , 5 2,5 . So the last digit b b must be 0 0 .

Again, for divisibility by 7 7 , here multiplying b b or 0 0 by 2 2 and then subtract from the rest, then which result comes must be divisible for 7 7

Now, 12 a 0 = 12 a 12a-0=12a

This 12 a 12a number must be divisible by 7 7 and it is possible for a = 6 a=6

Then the number comes 1260 1260

The result a + b = 6 + 0 = 6 a+b=6+0=\boxed6
