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 481.

What is the Divisibility Rule of 481?

The divisibility rule for 481 is a method by which we can determine if a number is divisible by 481 without using the division method. Let's check whether 1443 is divisible by 481 with the divisibility rule.
 

Step 1: Take the last digit of the number. Here, in 1443, 3 is the last digit.

Step 2: Multiply this last digit by 2 and subtract it from the remaining number formed by the other digits. So, 3×2=6 and 144-6=138.

Step 3: Repeat the process until you reach a number that is manageable. Since 138 is not a multiple of 481, we will continue the process (if necessary).

Step 4: If the result obtained is a multiple of 481, then the original number is divisible by 481. Otherwise, it is not. Since 138 is not a multiple of 481, 1443 is not divisible by 481.divisibility rule of 481

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 481

Learning the divisibility rule will help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 481.

  • Know the multiples of 481: Memorize the multiples of 481 (481, 962, 1443, etc.) to quickly check the divisibility. If the result from the subtraction is a multiple of 481, then the number is divisible by 481.
     
  • Use the negative numbers: If the result we get after the subtraction is negative, we will avoid the symbol and consider it as positive for checking the divisibility of a number.
     
  • Repeat the process for large numbers: Students should keep repeating the divisibility process until they reach a small number that is manageable and check for divisibility.
     
  • 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 verify and also learn.
