Solution: A number is divisible by 9 if the sum of their digits is divisible by 9. Now the sum of the digits is
equal to 26. To be able to make it divisible by 9, we can make it 27 or 36. Since we can only add one digit, we
can only make it 27 by adding 1.

4 and the ones digit is even making it 4xxx4. We want to minimize the number so we place 1 in the hundreds
digit, 5 in the tens digit, and 7 in the ones digit. So, the number is 41574.
