The smallest 6-digit number = 1,00,000.

To find the smallest 6-digit number exactly divisible by 63, we divide 1,00,000 by 63 and add the difference between the divisor and remainder to 1,00,000.

Required number to be added = 63 − 19 = 44

Number = 1,00,000 + 44 = 1,00,044.

Hence, the smallest 6-digit number exactly divisible by 63 = 1,00,044.
