578
A "General Use" area code, set aside by some international phone number cabal to NOT be used for any geographic region. tldr: if you receive a call from area code 578 it is almost certainly a spam call.

2 + 3 + .... + 67 + 71 = 639

639/9 = 71

568/71 = 8

8 * 9 = 72 = 71 +1

So the answer must be 71.
