When a number is divisible by 3, the sum of the digits must also be divisible by 3.
x +7 +y +5 = (x +y)+12
This sum is divisible by 3 if  x+y+12 is 12 or 15.
For x+y+12 = 12:
x+y=0
But x+y cannot be 0 because then x and y both will have to be 0.
Since x is the first digit, it cannot be 0.
? x+y+12 = 15
or x+y = 15-12=3

A number is divisible by 9 if the sum of the digits is divisible by 9.
x +4 +y +5 +z = 9 +(x +y +z)
The lowest value of (x +y +z) is equal to 0
 for the number x4y5z to be divisible by 9.
In this case, all x, y and z will be 0.
But x is the first digit, so it cannot be 0.
? x+4+y+5+z = 18
or x+y+z+9 = 18
or x+y+z = 9

For a number to be divisible by 9, the sum of the digits must also be divisible by 9.
1 +A +2 +B +5 = (A +B)+8
The number will be divisible by 9 if (A +B) = 1
.

If a number is divisible by 9, then the sum of the digits is divisible by 9.
x +2 +7 +y = (x +y)+9
For this to be divisible by 9, the least value of (x +y) is 0
.
But for x+y = 0, x and y both will be zero.
Since x is the first digit, it can never be 0.
? x + y + 9 = 18
or  x + y = 9
