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 901.
The divisibility rule for 901 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 901 or not without using the division method. Check whether 1802 is divisible by 901 with the divisibility rule.
Step 1: Divide the number into two parts: the first part containing all but the last three digits, and the second part containing just the last three digits. For 1802, divide it into 1 (first part) and 802 (second part).
Step 2: Multiply the first part by 1001. 1 × 1001 = 1001.
Step 3: Add the result from Step 2 to the second part. 1001 + 802 = 1803.
Step 4: Check if 1803 is a multiple of 901. Since it's not, 1802 is not divisible by 901.
Learning the divisibility rule will help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 901.
Memorize the multiples of 901 (901, 1802, 2703…etc.) to quickly check for divisibility. If the result from the addition is a multiple of 901, then the number is divisible by 901.
Students should break down large numbers into smaller parts and apply the divisibility rule to each part.
Students can use the division method as a way to verify and crosscheck their results. This will help them to verify and also learn.
The divisibility rule of 901 helps us to quickly check if a given number is divisible by 901, but common mistakes like calculation errors lead to incorrect results. Here we will understand some common mistakes that will help you to understand.
Is the number of pages in a book, 1802, divisible by 901?
No, 1802 is not divisible by 901.
To check if 1802 is divisible by 901, we need to perform the following steps:
1) Divide the number by 901 directly, as 901 is large enough and its rule involves straightforward division.
2) 1802 ÷ 901 = 2 with a remainder of 0.
3) Since there is no remainder, 1802 is not divisible by 901.
A shipment contains 2703 items. Verify if the total number of items is divisible by 901.
Yes, 2703 is divisible by 901.
Check the divisibility by simple division:
1) Divide 2703 by 901.
2) 2703 ÷ 901 = 3 with no remainder.
3) Since there is no remainder, 2703 is divisible by 901.
Is the total cost of goods, $4505, divisible by 901?
No, 4505 is not divisible by 901.
To determine if $4505 is divisible by 901:
1) Perform direct division: 4505 ÷ 901.
2) 4505 ÷ 901 = 5 with a remainder of 600.
3) The remainder indicates that 4505 is not divisible by 901.
A warehouse has 9010 units of a product. Is this number divisible by 901?
Yes, 9010 is divisible by 901.
Check divisibility by direct division:
1) Divide 9010 by 901.
2) 9010 ÷ 901 = 10 with no remainder.
3) Since the division yields a whole number with no remainder, 9010 is divisible by 901.
A batch of 45050 widgets is produced. Determine if the batch size is divisible by 901.
No, 45050 is not divisible by 901.
Verify divisibility:
1) Divide 45050 by 901.
2) 45050 ÷ 901 = 50 with a remainder of 50.
3) The presence of a remainder indicates that 45050 is not divisible by 901.
