Answers:
They are tiles!.!.!.Flip the 6 so it's a 9 =)
woops didn't see the 2nd bit =)
ermm i think it would be

The largest four-digit number that can be formed by these tiles that is not evenly divisible by 9 may be found by brute force thus:
Arranging the tiles in descending numeric order:
6543, 6534, 6453, 6435, 6354, 6345, 5643, 5634, 5463, 5436, 5364, 5346, 4653, 4635, 4563, 4536, 4365, 4356, 3654, 3645, 3564, 3546, 3465, 3456!.
Divide each group of 4 by 9, to get the following:
727,726,717,715, 706, 705, 627, 626, 607, 604, 596, 594, 517, 515, 507, 504, 485, 484, 406, 405, 396, 394, 385, 384!.
Out of the 24 numbers possible, the indicated division results in 24 answers with no remainder!.
So the straight arithmetic answer would be none or 0!.
But from the manner in which the question was framed, I suspect there is a trick answer you had in mind -- yes!?!?!?
Of course, flip the 6 to a 9!. Silly me!. That's what I get for not reading the earlier answers first!!!
Excellent outside the box thinking y'all!.!!Www@Enter-QA@Com

At first I didn't quite know how!.!.!.because all solutions were divisible evenly by 9!. Yet if you flip the 6 and make it a 9 you can work it!. The problem then becomes much easier!. All you do is find the correct form and you are done!.!.!.
just a few are!.!.!.
3459
9543
9453
etc!.
the largest is 9543Www@Enter-QA@Com

Turn the "6" tile upside down so you have a "9"!.
9543
Divided by 9 that would be!.!. 1060!.333!.!.!.
That's not even :)Www@Enter-QA@Com
