Divisibility RulesA number is divisible by:0:No number can be divided by 0 = undefined.1:All numbers are divisible by 1.2:If it is an even number (ends in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8)3: If the sum of its digits can be divided by 3.(5, 625: 5 + 6+ 2 + 5 = 18) 18 is divisible by 3. So is 5, 625.)4: If its last two digits can be divided by 4.(Do not add them together.)(9, 136: 36, the last two digits, is divisible by 4. So is 9, 136.)5: If the number ends with a 5 or a 0.(875 and 390 are both divisible by 5)6: If the number is divisible by BOTH 2 and by 3.(See the rules for 2 and for 3.)7:If when you take the last digit, double it and subtract from remaining digits, youranswer is 0, 7, or can be divided by 7.8:If the last three digits can be divided by 8.9: If the sum of its digits can be divided by 9.(6, 813: 6 + 8 + 1 + 3 = 18) 18 can be divided by 9.So can 6, 813.10:If the number ends with a 0.(760 and 3, 450 are both divisible by 0)11:If the difference between the sums of every other digit can bedivided by 11(4, 191: 4 – 1 + 9 – 1 = 11) 11 can be divided by 11.So can 4, 191.12. If the number is divisible by BOTH 3 and by 4.(See the rules for 3 and for 4.)
