Correct Answer :

Option C

7041

Solution :

The correct option is 7041.

To find the number that should be subtracted, we first calculate the total sum of the given numbers: 8008, 8088, and 8808.

Sum=8008+8088+8808

Adding these numbers together step-by-step:

8008+8088=16096

16096+8808=24904

So, the total sum is 24904.

Now, let the required number to be subtracted be x.

According to the problem statement:

24904-x=17863

To solve for x, subtract 17863 from 24904:

x=24904-17863

x=7041

Therefore, 7041 should be subtracted from the sum to obtain 17863.
