Students in a grade 7 class were raising money for charity. Some students had a “bowl-a-thon”.

This table shows the money that one student raised for different bowling times.

What patterns do you see in the table?

How long would the student have to bowl to raise $72?

What is meant by “divisibility rules”?A way to divide numbers quickly by following a pattern.

Why is it important?Divisibility rules help us find the factors of a number.

Copy down the following numbers.

78 27 35 410

123 2100 4126 795

Circle the ones that are divisible by 2.

Place a square around the ones that are divisible by 5.

Draw a triangle around the ones that divisible by 10.

A number is divisible by…2 If the whole number is even3 If the sum of the digits is divisible by 34 If the number formed by the last 2 digits is

divisible by 45 If the last digit is a 5 or a 06 If the number is divisible by 3 and is even8 If the number is divisible by 4 and the quotient

is even9 If the sum of the digits is divisible by 9

10 If it ends in 0

1) Choose 3 different colors.2) Using one color, circle the numbers that are

divisible by 2.3) Using a different color, circle all the numbers that

are divisible by 4.4) Using your last color, circle all the numbers that

are divisible by 8.

Be able to discuss the following:Describe the patterns that you found.

Sort the following numbers based on the divisibility rules for 3 and 5 using both Carroll and Venn Diagrams.

6, 8, 10, 15, 18, 25, 26, 36, 40, 45, 120
