To determine which numbers are multiples of 9, we can check if each number is evenly divisible by 9.

  • 27: \( 27 ÷ 9 = 3 \) (Yes, a multiple of 9)
  • 32: \( 32 ÷ 9 ≈ 3.56 \) (No, not a multiple of 9)
  • 46: \( 46 ÷ 9 ≈ 5.11 \) (No, not a multiple of 9)
  • 63: \( 63 ÷ 9 = 7 \) (Yes, a multiple of 9)
  • 72: \( 72 ÷ 9 = 8 \) (Yes, a multiple of 9)

Thus, the numbers that could be Ricky's number (multiples of 9) are:

  • 27
  • 63
  • 72
