My explanation goes like this

10z = 93120 ===> z = 9312
Hence, the hundred's digit = 3

Am I making any mistake?
Moderators please help.

by the way. whats the source of this problem?

Thanks

[quote="zozo123"]the source (see attached file)[/quote]

chatekar is right.

The answer is (A), if the LHS of the eq is considered multiplication, as in

10 * z = 93120
z = 9312
100's digit = 1, so (1) is sufficient alone

I don't see how the answer could be (E). Anyone?
