The answer is 88 because if u divide by seven the highest it can reach it 84 which has a remainder of 4 while if we divide it with 88 the remainder is 8 so its 88

Add 3 to get a multiple of 7 with last digit 1. The only number in that range is 91, so our number is 88.

The number that is more than 50 but less than 100, with a remainder of 4 when divided by 7 and a remainder of 8 when divided by 10, is 88. This satisfies all given conditions. Verification shows that dividing 88 by both 7 and 10 gives the correct remainders.
