Divisibility Rule of 106

The divisibility rule for 106 is a method by which we can determine if a number is divisible by 106 without using the division method. Let's check whether 4242 is divisible by 106 using the divisibility rule.

Step 1: Separate the number into groups of three digits from the right. For 4242, we have two groups: 4 and 242.

Step 2: Multiply the leftmost group (4) by 1000 and the rightmost group (242) by 1. 4×1000=4000 and 242×1=242.

Step 3: Add the results: 4000+242=4242.

Step 4: Check if the sum (4242) is divisible by 106. If the result is divisible by 106, then the original number is also divisible by 106.
 

Learning the divisibility rule will help kids master division. Let’s explore a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 106.
 

• Know the multiples of 106: Memorize multiples of 106 (106, 212, 318, 424, 530, etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the result from the calculation is a multiple of 106, the number is divisible by 106.
   
• Use the division method to verify: Students can use the division method as a way to verify and crosscheck their results. This helps them verify and also learn.
   

• Divisibility rule: A set of guidelines to determine whether a number is divisible by another without performing division.
   
• Multiples: Results obtained by multiplying a number by an integer. For example, multiples of 106 are 106, 212, 318, etc.
   
• Integers: Numbers that include all whole numbers, negative numbers, and zero.
