<h2>Divisible By</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>"Divisible By" means "when you divide one number by another the result is a <a href="whole-numbers.html">whole number</a>"</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example">
|
||
|
||
<h3>Examples:</h3>
|
||
<p>14 <b>is</b> divisible by 7, because 14 ÷ 7 = 2 <b>exactly</b></p>
|
||
<p>15 is <b>not</b> divisible by 7, because 15 ÷ 7 =<b> 2 <span class="intbl"><em>1</em><strong>7</strong></span></b> (the result is <b>not</b> a whole number)</p>
|
||
<p>0 <b>is</b> divisible by 7, because 0 ÷ 7 = 0 <b>exactly</b> (0 is a whole number)</p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<div class="words">"Divisible by" and "can be exactly divided by" mean the same thing</div>
|
||
|
||
|
||
<h2>The Divisibility Rules</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>These rules let you test if one number is divisible by another, without having to do too much calculation!</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example">
|
||
|
||
<h3>Example: is 723 divisible by 3?</h3>
|
||
<p>We could try dividing 723 by 3</p>
|
||
<p>Or use the "3" rule: 7+2+3=12, and 12 ÷ 3 = 4 exactly <b>Yes</b></p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<p><i>Note: Zero is divisible by <b>any number</b> (except by itself), so gets a "yes" to all these tests.</i></p>
|
||
<p> </p>
|
||
<div class="def">
|
||
<div class="wow1">1</div>
|
||
<p>Any integer (not a fraction) is divisible by 1</p><br>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<div class="def">
|
||
<div class="wow1">2</div>
|
||
<p>The last digit is even (0,2,4,6,8)</p>
|
||
<p class="so">12<b>8</b> <b>Yes</b></p>
|
||
<p class="so">12<b>9</b> <b>No</b></p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
<div class="def">
|
||
<div class="wow1">3</div>
|
||
<p>The sum of the digits is divisible by 3
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p class="so">381 (3+8+1=12, and 12÷3 = 4) <b>Yes</b></p>

||
<p class="so">217 (2+1+7=10, and 10÷3 = 3 <span class="frac"><sup>1</sup>/<sub>3</sub></span>) <b>No</b></p>
|
||
<p>This rule can be repeated when needed:</p>
|
||
<p class="so">99996 (9+9+9+9+6 = 42, then 4+2=6) <b>Yes</b>
|
||
</p></div><p></p>

<div class="def">

||
<p class="so">70<b>19</b> is not (19÷4=4 <span class="frac"><sup>3</sup>/<sub>4</sub></span>) <b>No</b></p>
|
||
<p>A quick check (useful for small numbers) is to halve the number twice and the result is still a whole number.</p>
|
||
<p class="so">12/2 = 6, 6/2 = 3, 3 is a whole number. <b>Yes</b></p>

<div class="def">

<div class="wow1">7</div>
|

<p>Double the last digit and subtract it from a number made by the other digits. The result must be divisible by 7.

<p>A quick check is to halve three times and the result is still a whole number:</p>

<p>Add and subtract digits in an alternating pattern (add digit, subtract next digit, add next digit, etc). Then check if that answer is divisible by 11.</p>

<p>There are lots more! Not only are there divisibility tests for larger numbers, but there are more tests for the numbers we have shown.</p>

|
||
<h2>Factors Can Be Useful</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>Factors are the numbers you multiply to get another number:</p>
|
||
<p class="center"><img src="numbers/images/factor-2x3.svg" alt="factors" height="70" width="181"></p>
|
||
<p>This can be useful, because:</p>
|
||
<p class="center"><span class="larger">When a number is divisible by another number ...</span></p>
|
||
<p class="larger" align="right">... then it is <b>also</b> divisible by each of the factors of that number.</p>
|
||
<p> </p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example">
|
||
<p>Example: If a number is divisible by 6, it is also divisible by 2 and 3</p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example">
|
||
<p>Example: If a number is divisible by 12, it is also divisible by 2, 3, 4 and 6</p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
|
||
|
||
<h2>Another Rule For 11</h2>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>Subtract the last digit from a number made by the other digits.</li>
|
||
<li>If that number is divisible by 11 then the original number is, too.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<p>Can repeat this if needed,</p>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example">
|
||
|
||
<h3>Example: 286</h3>
|
||
<p>28 − 6 is 22, which <b>is</b> divisible by 11, so 286 is divisible by 11</p>
|
||
</div>
|
||
|
||
<div class="example">
|
||
|
||
<h3>Example: 14641</h3>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>1464 − 1 is 1463</li>
|
||
<li>146 − 3 is 143</li>
|
||
<li>14 − 3 is 11, which <b>is</b> divisible by 11, so 14641 is divisible by 11</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
