Well - Since it is a multiple of 8 - it is a multiple of 4
Condition for multiple of 4 == last two digits should be multiple of 4->
only possible options - ending in 96 and 92.
and once you divide them by 4 you should get a last digit which is even(not odd) for the number to be further divisible by 2 again.
That gives 96 as 92/4 = 23 not divisible further by 2.

That is not the correct way to look for divisibility by 8.

392 is divisible by 8, but 492 is not.
396 is not divisible by 8, but 496 is.

Look for divisibility of last 3 digits by 8.
