Dear Friend ,
 
this question is veri simple .
 
just need some basic concepts to solve it.
 
44 = 2 x 2 x 11 
 
now, if given number is divisible by 44 , it must be divisible by 11,2 and 2 or 11 and 4.
 
now, the given number is ,
 
414243444546474849505152535455565758
 
do divisibility test on it by 11 .
 
sum of alternating digits = 162
 
hence the number is not divisible by 11.
 
therefore , the number will not be divisible by 44.
 
hope you got your answer.
