  3. c.

    10

  4. d.

    12

Explanation

Answer is (b). To find a number completely divisible by both 4 and 6, it must be divisible by the least common multiple (LCM) of 4 and 6, which is 12. Hence, there are 8 possible numbers meeting this condition: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, and 96. Therefore, the answer is (b).
