                                                      Divisibility Tests


               We know that a number is said to be divisible if it is divided by numbers
               without leaving any remainder. Divisibility tests help us in finding whether

               a number is divisible by a given number or not without performing actual
               division.

               Let us know it with examples.



                 Divisibility by                       Rules                                 Examples


                           2           The number ends with digits  40, 52, 68, 176, 214, etc.
                                       0, 2, 4, 6 or 8.


                         10            The number has ones digit 0. 20, 110, 2460, 5000, etc.



                          5            The number ends with 0 or 5. 15, 65, 100, 235, 4060, etc.




                          3            The  sum  of  digits  of  the  45  (4  +  5  =  9),  123  (1  +  2
                                       number  should  be  divisible  +  3  =  6),  807  (8  +  0  +  7  =

                                       by 3.                                    15), etc.


                          9            The  sum  of  digits  of  the  18  (1  +  8  =  9),  126  (1  +  2
                                       number  should  be  divisible  +  6  =  9),  495  (4  +  9  +  5  =

                                       by 9.                                    18), etc.
