Explanation:
To find the sum of the highest and second highest number obtained after interchanging the position of the first and second digit of each number, we need to follow the given steps:
Step 1: Interchange the positions of the first and second digit of each number.
The given numbers are: 867, 495, 736, 592, 619
After interchanging the positions, the numbers become: 687, 459, 376, 952, 169
Step 2: Arrange the numbers in descending order.
The numbers arranged in descending order are: 952, 687, 459, 376, 169
Step 3: Find the sum of the highest and second highest number.
The highest number is 952 and the second highest number is 687.
Sum = 952 + 687 = 1639
Therefore, the sum of the highest and second highest number obtained after interchanging the position of the first and second digit of each number is 1639.
Answer: Option A) 1639
