    Rules of Divisibility

    Mrs. Young
    EMC 1

    I need somebody to raise


    their hand and give me
    any two digit number I
    will then tell you what
    numbers this is divisible
    by without having do write
    anything down!

    Objective

    To use rules of divisibility for larger


    numbers

    Definition
    Divisibility: the ability to determine
    what numbers a larger number is
    divisible by evenly.
    There are some tricks that we can
    use to help us determine what
    numbers larger numbers are divisible
    by without doing long division.

    Rules of Divisibility for


    2
    A number is divisible by 2 if the
    ones digit is even.
    Therefore, any number that ends
    with 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8 is divisible by
    2 evenly.
    Examples: 78; 102; 1,046; 6,550

    Rules of Divisibility for


    3
    A number is divisible by 3 if the
    sum of the digits is a multiple of
    three.
    Is 96 divisible by 3?
    In order to find out, we must add the
    digits 9 + 6

    9 + 6 = 15
    Is 15 a multiple of 3??? YES, which
    means that 96 is divisible by 3.

    Rules of Divisibility for


    3 continued
    How about 108 is this number
    divisible by 3???
    Add the digits together

    1+0+8=9
    Is 9 a multiple of 3??? YES, which
    means that 108 is divisible by 3!

    Rules of Divisibility for


    4
    A number is divisible by 4 if the
    last two digits are divisible by four.
    Lets take 124 for example:
    The last two digits in 124 are 24

    Is 24 divisible by 4? YES, this means


    that 124 is divisible by 4!

    Rules of Divisibility for


    4 continued
    How about 1,312 is this number
    divisible by 4???
    The last two digits in 1,312 are 12
    Is 12 divisible by 4??? YES, again,
    this means that 1,312 is divisible by
    4!

    Rules of Divisibility for


    5
    A number is divisible by 5 if the
    ones digit is 0 or 5.
    So, any number that ends with a 0 or
    a 5 is definitely divisible by 5!
    Examples: 10; 95; 115; 690; 4,615

    Rules of Divisibility for


    6
    A number is divisible by 6 if the
    sum of the digits is a multiple of
    three and even.
    Lets look at the number 132
    132 is an even number
    And, if we add up all of the digits 1 + 3 +
    2=6
    6 is a multiple of 3, which means that
    132 is divisible by 6.

    Rules of Divisibility for


    6 continued
    Lets try 804
    804 is an even number
    8 + 0 + 4 = 12
    12 is a multiple of 3, which means that
    804 is divisible by 6.

    Rules of Divisibility for


    7
    A number is divisible by 7 :
    1) Take the last digit
    2) Double it
    3) Then subtract it from the rest of
    the number. Is this number a
    multiple of 7?

    Rules of Divisibility for


    7 continued
    Example: 203
    The last digit of 203 is 3
    Double 3, means 3 x 2 = 6
    Subtract 6 from 20
    20 6 = 14

    Is 14 a multiple of 7?? YES, which


    means that 203 is divisible by 7.

    Rules of Divisibility for


    7 continued
    Example: 714
    Take the last digit 4, and double it.
    4x2=8
    Subtract 8 from 71
    71 8 = 63
    Is 63 a multiple of 7?? YES, which
    means that 714 is divisible by 7.

    Rules of Divisibility for


    8
    A number is divisible by 8 if the last three
    digits are divisible by eight.
    Examples:
    9,640
    640 8 = 80 so the whole number, 9,640,
    is divisible by 8
    77, 184
    184 8 = 23 so 77,184 passes this
    divisibility test.

    Rules of Divisibility for


    8 continued
    How about a huge number like:
    20,233,322,496
    Well, maybe you were wondering if this
    divisibility rule was really helpful or not.
    Once you get a giant number like
    20,233,322,496, you start to realize what
    a nice trick this is to have up your sleeve!
    All you have to do is divide 496 by 8 to
    learn that the entire number is divisible by
    8.

    Rules of Divisibility for


    9
    A number is divisible by 9 if the
    sum of the digits is divisible by 9.
    Example: 702
    Add the digits: 7 + 0 + 2 = 9
    Is 9 divisible by 9? YES, which means
    that 702 is also divisible by 9.

    Rules of Divisibility for


    9 continued
    Example: 3,276
    Add the digits: 3 + 2 + 7 + 6 = 18
    Is 18 a multiple of 9??? YES, which
    means that 3,276 is also divisible by
    9.

    Turn to your neighbor


    when I give you the
