Correct answer: B
Solution:
For a number to be divisible by 22, it must be divisible both by 2 and 11. Since A and C are odd numbers, they are not divisible by 22.
In the case of D, (5 + 8) - (6 + 2) = 13 - 8 = 5, which is not a multiple of 11, so D is not divisible by 11, hence it is not divisible by 22.
Since B is an even number, it is divisible by 2. Also, (7 + 0) - (1 + 6) = 7 - 7 = 0, hence 7106 is divisible by 11. So, B is divisible by 22.
Hence the answer is B.
