D. 4,698,312

Answer :

Final answer:

The smallest possible number we can form with 8 in the thousands place and 1 in the tens place, given the numbers 4, 2, 6, 8, 9, 1, 3, is (A) 2,486,913.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to arrange all the provided numbers in a certain order to form the smallest possible number.

Given that 8 should be in the thousands place and 1 in the tens place, we should start the number with the smallest available digit, which is 2, then 4, then place the 8 as dictated, next comes 6 followed by the 9, then we slot in the 1 in the tens place, as required and end with the remaining 3.

Thus the smallest possible number we can form is (A) 2,486,913.
