1) A number is divisible by 2 if the digit in the ones place is even (0, 2, 4, 6, or 8).
2) A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3.
3) A number is divisible by 5 if the digit in the ones place is 0 or 5.
DIVISIBILITY BY 2
ANumber is divisible by2 if the digit at
ones place s divisible by 2,ie if the digiit
at ones place is 0,2,4,6,8.
Example -
• 18÷ 2 = 9
• 22 ÷ 2 = 11
(Notice that both of these numbers are
even.)
3.
DIVISIBILITY BY 3
ANumber is divisible by 3 if the sum of
its digit is divisible by 3.
Example-
• 27 =2+7=9
9 is divisible by 3
• 12=1+2=3
3 is divisible by 3
4.
DIVISIBILITY BY 4
ANumber is divisible by 4 if the number
formed by its digit at tens and ones place s
divisible by 4.
Example-
• 456791824 and 723810
(The number made by the last two digits can
be divided by 4)
5.
DIVISIBILITY BY 5
ANumber is divisible by 5 if the digit at
ones place 0 or 5.
Example-
• 34780 /5 =6956
• 8955/5 = 1791
(Both the ones place digit is 0 and 5)
6.
DIVISIBILITY BY 6
ANumber is if its last digit is an even
number or zero and the sum of the digits is a
multiple of 3.
Example-
270 is divisible by 2 because the last digit is
0.
The sum of the digits is: 2 + 7 + 0 = 9 which
is also divisible by 3.
Therefore, 270 is divisible by 6.
7.
DIVISIBILITY BY 7
Anumber is divisible by 7 if it has a
remainder of zero when divided by 7
Example -
• 672
double the last digit of the number2 is 4. 67
– 4 = 63 [Now we need to subtract it from
therest of theremaining number]
• Since 63 is divisible by 7
8.
DIVISIBILITY BY 8
ANumber is divisble by if the number
formed by the digits at hundreds,tens and
ones place is divisible by 8
Example-
• 3364280
(Separating the hundreds ,tens and ones
place)
i.e 280/8 = 35
9.
DIVISIBILITY BY 9
ANumber is divisible by 9 if the sum of its
digit is divisible by 9.
Example-
• 8826921
(8+8+2+6+9+2+1 = 36)
36/9 = 4
10.
DIVISIBILITY BY 10
ANumber s divisible by 10 if the digit at
ones place is 0.
Example-
• 10240 / 10 = 1024
• 12000 / 10 = 1200
11.
DIVISIBILITY BY 11
ANumber is divisible by 11 if the difference
between the sum of the digit at even places
and sum of the digit at odd places is either 0
or multiple of 11
Example-
• 13856722
sum of odd places = 2+7+3=17
sum of even places= 2+6+8+1=17
difference = 0
