Place Value (Indian) Face Value and Place Value of A Digit
Every prime number greater than 3 can be written in the form of (6K + 1) or (6K 1) where K is
an integer.
There are 15 prime numbers between 1 and 50 and l0 prime numbers between 50 and 100.
Relative Prime Numbers: Two numbers are said to be relatively prime if they do not have any common
factor other than 1.
eg, (3, 5), (4, 7), (11, 15), (15, 4)
Twin Primes: Two prime numbers which differ by 2 are called twin primes.
eg, (3, 5), (5, 7), (11, 13),
Composite Numbers Numbers which are not prime arc called composite numbers
eg, 4, 6, 9, 15,
1 is neither prime nor composite.
Perfect Number: A number is said to be a perfect number, if the sum of all its factors excluding itself is
equal to the number itself. eg, Factors of 6 are 1, 2, 3 and 6.
Sum of factors excluding 6 = 1 + 2 + 3 = 6.
6 is a perfect number.
Other examples of perfect numbers are 28, 496, 8128 etc.
Rules for Divisibility
Divisibility by 2: A number is divisible by 2 when the digit at ones place is 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8.
eg, 3582, 460, 28, 352, ....
Divisibility by 3: A number is divisible by 3 when sum of all digits of a number is a multiple of 3.
eg, 453 = 4 + 5 + 3 = 12.
12 is divisible by 3 so, 453 is also divisible by 3.
Divisibility by 4: A number is divisible by 4, if the number formed with its last two digits is divisible by 4.
eg, if we take the number 45024, the last two digits form 24. Since, the number 24 is divisible by 4, the
number 45024 is also divisible by 4.
Divisibility by 5: A number is divisible by 5 if its last digit is 0 or 5.
eg, 10, 25, 60
Divisibility by 6: A number is divisible by 6, if it is divisible both by 2 and 3.
eg, 48, 24, 108
Divisibility by 7: A number is divisible by 7 when the difference between twice the digit at ones place and
the number formed by other digits is either zero or a multiple of 7.
eg, 658
65 2 8 = 65 16 = 49
As 49 is divisible by 7 the number 658 is also divisible by 7.
Divisibility by 8: A number is divisible by 8, if the number formed by the last 3 digits of the number is
divisible by 8. eg, if we take the number 57832, the last three digits form 832. Since, the number 832 is
divisible
by 8, the number 57832 is also divisible by 8..
Divisibility by 9: A number is divisible by 9, if the sum of all the digits of a number is a multiple of 9.
eg, 684 = 6 + 8 + 4 = 18.
18 is divisible by 9 so, 684 is also divisible by 9.
Divisibility by 10: A number is divisible by 10, if its last digit is 0. eg, 20, 180, 350,.
Divisibility by 11: When the difference between the sum of its digits in odd places and in even places is
either 0 or a multiple of 11.
eg, 30426
3 + 4 + 6 = 13
0+2=2
13 2 = 11
As the difference is a multiple of 11 the number 30426 is also divisible by 11.
Smart Facts
If p and q are co-primes and both are factors of a number K, then their product p x q will also be a
factor of r. eg, Factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 prime factors of 24 are 2 and 3, which
are co-prime also. Product of 2 3 = 6, 6 is also a factor of 24.
If p divides q and r, then p also divides their sum or difference. eg, 4 divides 12 and 20. Sum
of 12 and 20 is 32 which is divisible by 4. Difference of 20 and 12 is 8 which is divisible by 4.
If a number is divisible by another number, then it must be divisible by each of the factors of that
number. 48 is divisible by 12. Factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12. So, 48 is divisible by 2, 3, 4 and 6
also.
Division on Numbers
In a sum of division, we have four quantities.
They are (i) Dividend, (ii) Divisor, (iii) Quotient and (iv) Remainder. These quantities are connected by a
relation.
(a) Dividend = Divisor Quotient + Remainder.
(b) Divisor = (Dividend Remainder) Quotient.
(c) Quotient = (Dividend Remainder) Divisor.
Example 2: In a sum of division, the quotient is 110, the remainder is 250, the divisor is equal to the sum
of the quotient and remainder. What is the dividend ?
Solution. Divisor = (110 + 250) = 360
Dividend = (360 110) + 250 = 39850
Hence, the dividend is 39850.
Example 3: Find the number of numbers upto 600 which are divisible by 14.
Solution. Divide 600 by 13, the quotient obtained is 46. Thus, there are 46 numbers less than 600 which
are divisible by 14.
