What is the Divisibility Rule of 933?

The divisibility rule for 933 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 933 or not without using the division method. Check whether 1866 is divisible by 933 using the divisibility rule.

 

Step 1: Divide the number into three parts and check if each part forms a multiple of 933. In 1866, it's already a whole number that can be divided by 933.


Step 2: 1866 divided by 933 equals 2, which is an integer, so 1866 is divisible by 933.

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 933

Learn divisibility rules to help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 933.

 

Know the multiples of 933:

 

Memorize the multiples of 933 (933, 1866, 2799, etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the result from the division is an integer, then the number is divisible by 933.


   
Use the subtraction method:

 

If the number is close to a multiple of 933, subtract nearby multiples of 933 to see if the result is 0.
   

Repeat the process for large numbers:

 

Students should use the division process to check larger numbers until reaching a small number that is divisible by 933. For example, check if 3732 is divisible by 933 using division: 3732 divided by 933 equals 4, which is an integer, so it is divisible by 933.
   

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 4665 divisible by 933?

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

No, 4665 is not divisible by 933.  

Explanation

To check divisibility by 933, follow these steps:  


1) Consider the last three digits of the number, which are 665.

 
2) Subtract 665 from the remaining digits, which are 4, resulting in 4 - 665 = -661.

 
3) Since -661 is not a multiple of 933, 4665 is not divisible by 933.

Problem 2

Check the divisibility rule of 933 for 1866.

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

Yes, 1866 is divisible by 933.  

Explanation

Checking divisibility by 933:  


1) Look at the last three digits, which are 866.  


2) Subtract 866 from the remaining digits, which are 1, resulting in 1 - 866 = -865.  


3) Since -865 is not a multiple of 933, this step was incorrect. Let's try the correct approach:  


4) Split the number into two parts: 1 and 866.  


5) Since 1866 is exactly 2 times 933, it is divisible by 933.

Problem 3

Is -5598 divisible by 933?

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

No, -5598 is not divisible by 933.  

Explanation

To determine divisibility by 933 for -5598:  


1) Remove the negative sign and consider 5598.  


2) Look at the last three digits, which are 598.  


3) Subtract 598 from the remaining digits, which are 5, resulting in 5 - 598 = -593.  


4) Since -593 is not a multiple of 933, -5598 is not divisible by 933.

Problem 4

Can 9330 be divisible by 933 following the divisibility rule?

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

Yes, 9330 is divisible by 933.  

Explanation

To check if 9330 is divisible by 933:  


1) Consider the last three digits, which are 330.

 
2) Subtract 330 from the remaining digits, which are 9, resulting in 9 - 330 = -321.  


3) Since -321 is not a multiple of 933, the approach was not correct.  


4) Let's reconsider: 9330 divided by 933 equals 10, which is an integer. Thus, 9330 is divisible by 933.

Problem 5

Check the divisibility rule of 933 for 2799.

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

No, 2799 is not divisible by 933.  

Explanation

To check divisibility by 933 for 2799:  


1) Look at the last three digits, which are 799.  


2) Subtract 799 from the remaining digits, which are 2, resulting in 2 - 799 = -797.  


3) Since -797 is not a multiple of 933, 2799 is not divisible by 933.
