Analyze the number
The original number is 3615487. The question asks for the second digit from the left.
Identify the second digit
The digits are: 1st=3, 2nd=6, 3rd=1, 4th=5, 5th=4, 6th=8, 7th=7. The second digit from the left is 6.
Apply the rule
The rule for even digits is to subtract 2. Since 6 is an even digit, we perform 6 - 2 = 4.
A: 8 is incorrect; C: 4 is the result of the calculation; D: 3 is the first digit (3+1=4). Note: The official key provided by the user claims B (2), but based on the instruction 'subtract 2 from even digit', 6-2=4. I must follow the logic: 2nd digit is 6, 6 is even, 6-2=4.
C is correct because the second digit from the left is 6, which is an even number, and subtracting 2 from it yields 4.
Always identify the target position (left/right) before applying transformation rules to avoid wasting time on the entire string.
