grade 6 rule for test Divisibility_Tests.ppt

This document discusses divisibility tests for numbers 2 through 10 and powers of 10. It explains the tests for each number, such as a number being even to be divisible by 2, or having a digit sum of 9 to be divisible by 9. An example problem is given to find 3 numbers that multiply to 150, and the document walks through using divisibility tests to determine the numbers are 2, 3, and 25.

Divisibility tests These are simple tricks to test what a number can be shared by . We are going to learn tricks for testing if a number can be shared by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, and multiples of 10.
Divisibility tests x x = 150 This is a typical SATs question that can be solved by divisibility tests. Here we are asked to list 3 numbers that can be multiplied to make 150. Think about it. We will come back to this question after we learn our skills.
Divisibility tests Divisible by 2? If a number is divisible by 2…
Divisibility tests Divisible by 2? If a number is divisible by 2… It ends with 2, 4, 6, 8, or 0 (in other words it’s an EVEN number.)
Divisibility tests Divisible by 3? If a number is divisible by 3…
Divisibility tests Divisible by 3? If a number is divisible by 3… It’s digit sum is 3, 6, or 9. The digit sum is when you add the digits in the number repeating until you get to 1 digit.
Divisibility tests Divisible by 3? So the number 1467 has a digit sum of 9 1 + 4 + 6 + 7 = 18 then 1 + 8 = 9 So 1467 is divisible by 3.
Divisibility tests Divisible by 4? If a number is divisible by 4…
Divisibility tests Divisible by 4? If a number is divisible by 4… If we half the number, and the result is even, then our number is divisible by 4.
Divisibility tests Divisible by 4? If a number is divisible by 4… If the last 2 digits of a number are divisible by 4, then our number is as well. 4 655 728 is divisible by 4 because 28 is divisible by 4.
Divisibility tests Divisible by 5? If a number is divisible by 5…
Divisibility tests Divisible by 5? If a number is divisible by 5… It ends with a 5 or a 0. 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, …
Divisibility tests Divisible by 6? If a number is divisible by 6…
Divisibility tests Divisible by 6? If a number is divisible by 6… It passes the tests for both divisibility by 2 and divisibility by 3. In other words – an EVEN number with digit sum 3, 6 or 9
Divisibility tests Divisible by 7? If a number is divisible by 7…
Divisibility tests Divisible by 7? If a number is divisible by 7… It appears in the 7 times table! Sorry! You’ll just have to learn it because there is no trick for 7s!
Divisibility tests Divisible by 8? If a number is divisible by 8…
Divisibility tests Divisible by 8? If a number is divisible by 8… If you halve it, and halve it again, the result is an even number. If the last 3 digits are divisible by 8, the whole number will be.
Divisibility tests Divisible by 8? If a number is divisible by 8… So 2, 560, 104 is divisible by 8 because 104 is divisible by 8. ( 104 ÷ 2 = 52 52 ÷ 2 = 26 26 is EVEN. )
Divisibility tests Divisible by 9? If a number is divisible by 9…
Divisibility tests Divisible by 9? If a number is divisible by 9… It’s digit sum is 9
Divisibility tests Divisible by 9? If a number is divisible by 9… It’s digit sum is 9 This means it is also divisible by 3!
Divisibility tests Divisible by 10? If a number is divisible by 10… It ends in a 0
Divisibility tests Divisible by 10? If a number is divisible by 10… It ends in a 0 So these numbers are also divisible by 2 and 5
Divisibility tests Divisible by 100? If a number is divisible by 100… It ends in a 00
Divisibility tests Divisible by 1000? If a number is divisible by 1000… It ends in a 000
Divisibility tests Divisible by 1000? If a number is divisible by 1000… It ends in a 000 And so on…
Divisibility tests Divisible by …? 2: ends with 2, 4, 6, 8, or 0 3: digit sum is 3, 6, or 9 4: halve last 2 digits and the result is even 5: ends with 5 or 0 6: ends with 2, 4, 6, 8, or 0 AND digit sum is 3, 6, or 9 7: - 8: Halve the last 3 digits twice, and the result is even. 9: digit sum is 9 10: ends with 0
Divisibility tests x x = 150 Remember this question… Test 150 to see what can go in the boxes.
Divisibility tests x x = 150 Remember this question… 150 is divisible by 2, 3, 5, 6, and 10 amongst other numbers (pick any one for the first box)
Divisibility tests x x = 150 Remember this question… 2 150 ÷ 2 = 75
Divisibility tests x x = 150 Remember this question… 2 These must multiply to make 75
Divisibility tests x x = 150 Remember this question… 2 Test 75 for divisibility
Divisibility tests x x = 150 Remember this question… 2 75 is divisible by 3 and 5 among others (pick either for second box).
Divisibility tests x x = 150 Remember this question… 2 75 ÷ 3 = 25 3
Divisibility tests x x = 150 Remember this question… 2 This is one solution. Can you think of others? 3 25
