Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

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 234.

What is the Divisibility Rule of 234?

The divisibility rule for 234 is a method by which we can determine if a number is divisible by 234 or not without using the division method. Check whether 4680 is divisible by 234 using the divisibility rule.

 

Step 1: Check if the number is divisible by 2, 3, and 13, since 234 = 2 × 3 × 13.


- For divisibility by 2, the last digit must be even. Here, the last digit of 4680 is 0, which is even.
- For divisibility by 3, the sum of the digits must be divisible by 3. The sum of the digits of 4680 is 4 + 6 + 8 + 0 = 18, which is divisible by 3.
- For divisibility by 13, divide the number by 13 directly or use shortcuts. 4680 divided by 13 gives a whole number (360).

 

Step 2: Since 4680 is divisible by 2, 3, and 13, it is divisible by 234
