The problem asks you to find the digits $a$ and $b$ in the four-digit number $7a5b$, such that the number is divisible by both 12 and 54. Let's break down the divisibility rules for both 12 and 54:

Divisibility by 12:

• A number is divisible by 12 if it is divisible by both 3 and 4.
  • Divisibility by 3: The sum of the digits must be divisible by 3.
  • Divisibility by 4: The last two digits of the number must form a number divisible by 4.

Divisibility by 54:

• A number is divisible by 54 if it is divisible by both 6 and 9.
  • Divisibility by 6: The number must be divisible by both 2 and 3.
  • Divisibility by 9: The sum of the digits must be divisible by 9.

Steps:

1. Divisibility by 4: The number formed by the last two digits, $5b$, must be divisible by 4. This limits the possible values of $b$.
2. Divisibility by 3: The sum of the digits $7 + a + 5 + b$ must be divisible by 3.
3. Divisibility by 9: The sum of the digits $7 + a + 5 + b$ must also be divisible by 9.

Using these rules, let's find all possible values for $a$ and $b$.
