The divisibility rule is a way to find out whether a number is divisible by another number without using the division method. In real life, we can use the divisibility rule for quick math, dividing things evenly, and sorting things. In this topic, we will learn about the divisibility rule of 130.

What is the Divisibility Rule of 130?

The divisibility rule for 130 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 130 or not without using the division method. Check whether 2600 is divisible by 130 using the divisibility rule.

 

Step 1: Check if the number is divisible by 10. Here, the last digit of 2600 is 0, which means it is divisible by 10.


Step 2: Check if the number obtained by removing the last digit (i.e., 260) is divisible by 13.


Step 3: Divide 260 by 13. Since 260 ÷ 13 = 20, which is an integer, 260 is divisible by 13. 


Since both conditions are satisfied, 2600 is divisible by 130.divisibility rule of 130

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 130

Learning the divisibility rule will help kids to master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 130.

 

Know the multiples of 130:

 

Memorize the multiples of 130 (130, 260, 390, 520…etc.) to quickly check divisibility.

 

Use the divisibility rules of 10 and 13:

 

A number divisible by 130 must first be divisible by 10, then check if the remaining number (after removing the last digit) is divisible by 13.

 

Repeat the process for large numbers:

 

Students should continue checking divisibility step-by-step, especially for large numbers.

 

Use the division method to verify:

 

Students can use the division method as a way to verify and cross-check their results. This will help them to verify and also learn.
