What is the Divisibility Rule of 7?
The divisibility rule of 7 states that, if a number is divisible by 7, then “the
difference between twice the unit digit of the given number and the
remaining part of the given number should be a multiple of 7 or it should be
equal to 0”.

For example, 798 is divisible by 7.

The unit digit of 798 is 8.

If the unit digit is doubled, we get 16 (i.e., 8 x 2 = 16)

The remaining part of the given number is 79.

Now, take the difference between 79 and 16.

= 79-16

=63

Here, the difference value obtained is 63, which is a multiple of 7. (i.e., 9 x 7 =

63)

Thus, the given number 798 is divisible by 7.

What is the divisibility rule of 11?
“ the
The divisibility rule of 11 states that, if a number is divisible by 11, then
difference between the sum of digits at odd places and the sum of
digits at even places must be 0 or a multiple of 11.”
For example 10824

Sum of digits at odd places = 1 + 8 + 4 =13

Sum of digits at even places = 0+ 2 = 2

Difference= 13 – 2 = 11

As the difference between the sum of digits at odd places and the sum of digits
at even places is 11, so 10824 is divisible by 11.
