The divisibility rule is a way to determine whether a number is divisible by another number without performing division. 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 540.
The divisibility rule for 540 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 540 without using the division method. Check whether 1080 is divisible by 540 with the divisibility rule.
Step 1: Check if the number is divisible by 2. Since 1080 ends in 0, it is divisible by 2.
Step 2: Check if the number is divisible by 3. Add the digits of 1080 (1 + 0 + 8 + 0 = 9). Since 9 is divisible by 3, 1080 is divisible by 3.
Step 3: Check if the number is divisible by 5. Since 1080 ends in 0, it is divisible by 5.
Step 4: Since 1080 is divisible by 2, 3, and 5, it is also divisible by 540.
