What is the Divisibility Rule of 518?

The divisibility rule for 518 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 518 or not without using the division method. Check whether 1554 is divisible by 518 with the divisibility rule.

Step 1: Since 518 is a composite number, check divisibility by its factors: 2, 7, and 37.

Step 2: Check divisibility by 2: 1554 ends in 4, which is even, so it is divisible by 2.

Step 3: Check divisibility by 7: Follow the divisibility rule for 7, which involves multiplying the last digit by 2 and subtracting from the rest of the number. Since 1554 is large, use a calculator or software to check if 1554 divided by 7 leaves no remainder.

Step 4: Check divisibility by 37: Use a calculator or software to check if 1554 divided by 37 leaves no remainder.

Step 5: If 1554 is divisible by 2, 7, and 37, then it is divisible by 518.
