To make 4461 divisible by 9, we can either add or subtract some numbers basis the obtained remainder.
 
First divide 4461 by 9.
You will get remainder 6.
 
Remember, we need to find out the least number which should be added or subtracted from the dividend (4461).
In such cases, if we subtract the remainder, 6 from 4461, we get the number 4455, which is completely divided by 9.
Consider the case when you add 3 to the remainder 6, then it becomes 9. So, if you add 3 to the number 4461, you get 4464, which is completely divisible by 9.
 
Remember what was stated in the question? Yes, we need to find the 'least' number that can be added or subtracted to the number 4461.
So, the least number out of 6 and 3 is 3.
