|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Numbers that are
divisible by 2 end in __, __, __, __, or __.
Numbers that are divisible by 5 end in either __ or __. Numbers that are divisible by 10 end in __ . |
Division rule for 3 is different. No longer do we check in what the
number ends:
In other words, we add the digits of the number, and if that is divisible
by 3, so is the original number.

1. Check if these numbers are divisible by three. Then divide the number by 3 in your notebook and record the answer here. What is the remainder if the number IS divisible by 3?
| Number | sum of its digits |
divisible by 3 |
division result |
| 771
8096 2304 |
771 ÷
3 = ___, R ___
8096 ÷ 3 = ___, R ___ 2304 ÷ 3 = ___, R ___ |
Division rule for 9 is similar to the division rule for 3.
|
2. Check if these numbers are divisible by nine. Then divide the number by 9 in your notebook and record the answer here. What is the remainder if the number IS divisible by 9?
| Number | sum of its digits |
divisible by 9 |
division result |
| 771
1000 333 |
771 ÷
9 = ___, R ___
1000 ÷ 9 = ___, R ___ 333 ÷ 9 = ___, R ___ |
3. Use the divisibility rules and check if the number is divisible by 2, 3, 5, or 9.

4. Check if these numbers are divisible by six. If it is, then divide the number by 6 in your notebook and record the answer here.
| Number |
divisible by 6 |
division result |

8196 1000 |
771 ÷
6 = ___, R ___
8196 ÷ 6 = ___, R ___ 1000 ÷ 6 = ___, R ___ |
