For a number to be a multiple of 24, it has to be divisible by 8 and 3 both. For a number to be divisible by 3, the sum of its digits has to be divisible by 3; for a number to be divisible by 8, the last 3 digits of the number should be zeroes or form a number that is divisible by 8.

The above constraints give us strong reasons to eliminate some options coupled with the fact that we have to use each of the 10 digits viz., 0, 1, 2, … 9.

Answer option C can be eliminated since it does not use the digit 3 and hence is a 9-digit number and therefore not the largest since all the other options have 10-digit numbers.

The sum of the the ten digits given is always 45 (this is a nice fact to remember). 45 is divisible by 3, therefore, all the numbers given in the 4 options are divisible by 3.
Hence, we can use the divisibility rule of 8 to eliminate the remaining wrong answers.

Answer options A, D and E can be eliminated since the last 3 digits in these options are 210, 890 and 980 are not divisible by 8
.
The correct answer option is B.

Hope that helps!
