What is the Divisibility Rule of 600?

The divisibility rule for 600 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 600 or not without using the division method. To determine if a number is divisible by 600, it must be divisible by the factors of 600, which are 3, 4, and 25.

Check divisibility by 3: A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3.

Check divisibility by 4: A number is divisible by 4 if the last two digits of the number form a number that is divisible by 4.


Check divisibility by 25: A number is divisible by 25 if the last two digits are 00, 25, 50, or 75.

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 600

Learning the divisibility rule will help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 600.

Know the multiples of 600: Memorize some multiples of 600 (600, 1200, 1800, 2400, etc.) to quickly check for divisibility.

Break the rule into parts: Since 600 is composed of 3, 4, and 25, verify each factor separately to simplify the process.

Repeat the process for large numbers: For large numbers, break them down into smaller parts that are easier to check for divisibility by 3, 4, and 25.

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 to verify and also learn.

Problem 1

Is the number of pages in a book, 1800, divisible by 600?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

Yes, 1800 is divisible by 600. 

Explanation

 To check if 1800 is divisible by 600, we must confirm it is divisible by 2, 3, and 5. 

1) The last digit is 0, which is divisible by 2.  

2) Sum the digits: 1 + 8 + 0 + 0 = 9, which is divisible by 3.  

3) The last digit is 0, which is divisible by 5.  

Since 1800 meets all these conditions, it is divisible by 600.

Problem 2

Check if the number of participants in a marathon, 2400, can be divided evenly into groups of 600.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

Yes, 2400 is divisible by 600.  
 

Explanation

 To determine if 2400 is divisible by 600, we need to check divisibility by 2, 3, and 5.  

1) The last digit is 0, so it's divisible by 2.
 
2) Sum the digits: 2 + 4 + 0 + 0 = 6, which is divisible by 3.
 
3) The last digit is 0, so it's divisible by 5.
 
Since all conditions are satisfied, 2400 is divisible by 600.

Problem 3

Is a shipment of 3600 products divisible into packages of 600?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

Yes, 3600 is divisible by 600.  
 

Explanation

To check if 3600 can be divided by 600, it must be divisible by 2, 3, and 5.  

1) The last digit is 0, thus divisible by 2.  

2) Sum the digits: 3 + 6 + 0 + 0 = 9, which is divisible by 3.  

3) The last digit is 0, hence divisible by 5.  

As 3600 satisfies all these rules, it is divisible by 600.

Problem 4

Can a batch of 1250 widgets be evenly divided into containers of 600?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

No, 1250 is not divisible by 600. 

Explanation

For 1250 to be divisible by 600, it needs to be divisible by 2, 3, and 5.  

1) The last digit is 0, indicating it's divisible by 2.
 
2) Sum the digits: 1 + 2 + 5 + 0 = 8, not divisible by 3.  

3) The last digit is 0, indicating divisibility by 5.  

Since 8 is not divisible by 3, 1250 cannot be divided by 600.

Problem 5

Is a budget of $3000 divisible by 600 for project allocations?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

Yes, 3000 is divisible by 600.

Explanation

To verify if 3000 is divisible by 600, it must be divisible by 2, 3, and 5.  

1) The last digit is 0, thus divisible by 2.  

2) Sum the digits: 3 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 3, which is divisible by 3.  

3) The last digit is 0, hence divisible by 5.  


Therefore, 3000 is divisible by 600.
