Divisibility
a.) By 2:

unit digit is even

0, 2, 4, 6, 8
b.) By 4: Last two digits should be divisible by 4.
c.) By 8: Last three digit should be divisible by 8
d.) By 5: unit digit should be either 0 or 5.
e.) By 3: Sum of digits should be multiple of 3.
f.) By 9: sums of the digits should be multiple of 9.
g.) By 11: difference of sum of odd and even digits should be either 0 or multiple of 11.
h.) By 6: divisibility by both 3 and 2.
i.) By 12: divisibility by both 4 and 3.
j.) By 14: divisibility by both 2 and 7.
k.) By 21: divisibility by both 3 and 7.
l.) By 15: divisibility by both 3 and 5.

# Square of any number can't end with unit digit 2, 3, 7, and 8.


# Sum of the digits of the square of any number is 1, 4,7,9

e. g. If we have to find out 1681


Unit digit 1
So unit digit of x is either 1 or 9
And 402 = 1600, 502 =2500
So answer can be 41 or 49
But 452 = 2025
So answer is 412 = 1681

e. g. 6859
Unit digit is 9 so unit digit of 3 x will be 9 if 6859 is perfect cube.
10 = 1000
20 = 8000

So 6859 = 19

Arithmetic Equation

(1.) a 3 + b 3 = (a + b)(a 2 ab + b 2 )
(2.) a 3 b 3 = (a b)(a 2 + ab + b 2 )
(3.) a 3 + b 3 = (a + b)3 3ab(a + b)
(4.) a 3 b 3 = (a b)3 + 3ab(a b)
(5.) (a b)2 = (a + b)2 4ab
(6.) (a + b)2 = (a b)2 + 4ab
(7.) (a + b + c)3 = a 3 + b 3 + c 3 + 3(b + c)(c + a)(a + b)

If a+b+c=0 then the value of a +b +c


(8.) (a+b+c)2 = a2+b2+c2+2(ab+bc+ca)
