What is the Divisibility Rule of 921?

The divisibility rule for 921 is a method by which we can determine if a number is divisible by 921 without division. Let's check whether 1842 is divisible by 921 using this rule.

 

Step 1: Multiply the last digit of the number by 2. In 1842, the last digit is 2. Multiply it by 2: 2 × 2 = 4.

 

Step 2: Add the result from Step 1 to the remaining number, excluding the last digit. That is, 184 + 4 = 188.

 

Step 3: Since 188 is not a multiple of 921, 1842 is not divisible by 921. If the result from Step 2 were a multiple of 921, the number would be divisible by 921.

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 921

Learning the divisibility rule helps students master division. Here are a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 921:

 

Know the multiples of 921:

 

Memorize the multiples of 921 (921, 1842, 2763, etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the result from the addition is a multiple of 921, then the number is divisible by 921.

 

Use negative numbers:

 

If the result after addition is negative, treat it as positive to check divisibility.

 

Repeat the process for large numbers:

 

Continue the divisibility process until reaching a smaller number divisible by 921. For example, check if 3684 is divisible by 921:

Multiply the last digit by 2, i.e., 4 × 2 = 8.

Add the remaining digits excluding the last digit, 368 + 8 = 376.

Since 376 is not a multiple of 921, 3684 is not divisible by 921.

 

Use the division method to verify:

 

Students can use the division method to verify their results, reinforcing their learning.
