Divisibility rules
“Divisible by”
From Lessons 1-4, we learned that number is “divisible by” another number when there is no remainder.
Example: 21 is divisible by 7 (21 ÷ 7 = 3) 48 is divisible by 4 (48 ÷ 4 =
12)
24 is not divisible by 5 (24 ÷ 5 = 4 r 4)
33 is not divisible by 2 (33 ÷ 2 = 16 r 1)
Calculator Test
One way to determine if a number is divisible by another is to use a calculator.
If the division gives results in a decimal, it is not divisible by that number
Example: Look at these two calculations; which is not divisible by 2?
341 ÷ 2 = 170.5 248 ÷ 2 = 124
Calculator Test continued
341 ÷ 2 = 170.5 341 is not divisible by 2 (The quotient has a decimal,
170.5)--------------------------------------------------------------248 ÷ 2 = 124
248 is divisible by 2 (The quotient has no decimal,
124)
Divisibility Rules
How can you know that a number is divisible by 2 without actually doing the division?
Divisibility Rules
How can you know that a number is divisible by 2 without actually doing the division?
Numbers that end in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8 are divisible by 2.
Examples: 20, 14, 436, 208
Divisibility Rules
Can you tell whether a number is divisible by 10 without dividing?
Divisibility Rules
Can you tell whether a number is divisible by 10 without dividing?

examples: 20, 100, 250, 1030
Divisibility Rules
Can you tell whether a number is divisible by 3 without dividing?
Divisibility Rules
Can you tell whether a number is divisible by 3 without dividing?
Yes, but first you must know about
DIGITAL SUMS.
Digital Sums
What is a DIGITAL SUM?Examples:
The digital sum of 348 is 15. (3+4+8=15) The digital sum of 1,045 is 10. (1+0+4+5=10)
The digital sum of 111 is 3. (1+1+1=3)
The digital sum of 712,004 is 14 (7+1+2+0+0+4=14)
Divisibility Rules
Can you tell whether a number is divisible by 3 without dividing?
Yes, if the digital sum is divisible by 3, so is the number.
201 is divisible by 3:(2+0+1=3 and 3÷3=1 )
Divisible by 3
EXAMPLES:
123 is divisible by 3: The Digital Sum of 123 is 6
(1+2+3=6) 6 ÷ 3 = 2
452 is not divisible by 3 The Digital Sum of 452 is 11
(4+5+2=11) 11 ÷ 3 = 3r2

DIGITAL SUMS
DIGITAL SUMS also works for numbers divisible by 9.
Digital Sums and 9s
Examples603 is divisible by 9: The Digital Sum of 603 is 9
(6+0+3=9) 9 ÷ 9 = 1
459 is divisible by 9 The Digital Sum of 459 is 18
(4+5+9=18) 18 ÷ 9 = 2
Digit Sums
Is 936 divisible by both 3 and 9?
Digit Sums
Is 936 divisible by both 3 and 9?
Digital Sum of 936 is 18.18 ÷ 3 = 6 18 ÷ 9 = = 2
Yes, 936 is divisible by both 3 and 9.
Digit Sums
Is 444 divisible by both 3 and 9?
Digit Sums
Is 444 divisible by both 3 and 9?
Digital Sum of 444 is 12.12 ÷ 3 = 4 12 ÷ 9 = = 1r3
No, 444 is divisible by 3 (but not 9).
