Divisibility Rules:
Divisibility Test for 2
On the off chance that the ones digit or unit's place digit of a number is either 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8 then the
number is said to be divisible by 2. In different terms, on the off chance that the last digit of the number
is even, at that point it is constantly divisible by 2. For instance, how about we take 24. The last digit is
even. 4 is divisible by 2, hence the number 24 is divisible by 2.
Divisibility Test for 4
If the number formed by the last two digits is divisible by 4 then a number is said to be divisible by 4. For
instance, how about we take 12343684. You don't have to stress over every one of the numbers, simply
check the last 2 digits of the numbers. On the off chance that the last two digits i.e 84 are distinct by 4
then the number is divisible by 4.
Divisibility Tests for 3 and 9
A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3. We should view a few examples.
121: Here the sum of the digits is 4. Is 4 divisible by 3? No.
123: Here the sum of the digits is 6 and 6 is divisible by 3. So the number 123 is divisible by 3.
Similar rules are associated with the divisibility test of 9. A number is divisible by 9 if the sum of its digits
is divisible by 9.
Divisibility Test for 5
A number is exactly divisible by 5 in the event that it has the digits 0 or 5 at ones place. The numbers like
15, 120, 205, 4405 and so forth are exactly divisible by 5 as these numbers have 0 or 5 in the ones place.
How about we take a gander at an example. In the numbers 21345650 and 459022, which one is divisible
by 5? Out of both the numbers 21345650 and 459022, the first number i.e 21345650 is exactly divisible
by 5 as the ones digit is 0.
Divisibility Test for 6
A number is divisible by 6 if that number is divisible by 2 and 3 both. For checking the divisibility of the
number with 6 we need to apply divisibility tests that we perform for the divisors 2 and 3. We should take
a gander at an example.Check whether the 12581 is divisible by 6.
In the number 12581, the ones digit does not have any of the numbers like 0, 2, 4, 6, 8. So the number
isn't divisible by 2. Henceforth the number isn't divisible by 6 on the grounds that for a number to be
divisible by 6, it must be divisible by 2 and 3 both.
Divisibility Test for 8
The divisibility test for 8 is applied in the case of numbers with at least three digits. A number is divisible
by 8 if the three digit number formed by the digits in ones, tens and the hundreds spots is divisible by 8.
In the number 5864, we see that the number formed by the digits in ones, tens and hundreds spot is 864,
which is divisible by 8, so the number is divisible by 8.
Divisibility Test for 10
If the units digit of a number is 0, then it is divisible by 10.
Divisibility Test for 7
Test 1:
Take the digits of the number backward, from right to left, multiplying them progressively by the digits 1,
3, 2, 6, 4, 5, repeating with this pattern of multipliers as long as necessary. On the off chance that the sum
obtained is divisible by 7, then the number is divisible by 7. Example: Is the number 1603 divisible by 7?
Solution: (3 × 1) + (0 × 3) + (6 × 2) + (1 × 6) = 21. This number is divisible by 7.
Test 2:
Double the last digit and subtract it from the remaining leading truncated number. In the event that the
result is divisible by 7, then the original number is also divisible by 7. Example: Is the number 1603
divisible by 7?
Solution: Applying the technique, 160 - 2 × 6 = 154. This number is distinct by 7.
Divisibility Test by 11
If the difference of the sums of alternate digits of a number is 0 or a multiple of 11, then the number
itself is divisible by 11. Let’s look at an example.
