Divisibility Rule of 191

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 191.

What is the Divisibility Rule of 191?

The divisibility rule for 191 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 191 or not without using the division method. Check whether 5731 is divisible by 191 with the divisibility rule.

 

Step 1: Multiply the last digit of the number by 2, here in 5731, 1 is the last digit. Multiply it by 2. 1 × 2 = 2.

 

Step 2: Subtract the result from Step 1 from the remaining values but do not include the last digit. i.e., 573–2 = 571.

 

Step 3: As it is shown that 571 is not a multiple of 191, therefore, the number is not divisible by 191. If the result from step 2 is a multiple of 191, then the number is divisible by 191.

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 191

Learning divisibility rules will help kids to master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 191.

 

  • Know the multiples of 191: Memorize the multiples of 191 (191, 382, 573, 764, etc.) to quickly check the divisibility. If the result from the subtraction is a multiple of 191, then the number is divisible by 191.

 

  • Use 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 easily verifiable.

For example: Check if 7652 is divisible by 191 using the divisibility test. Multiply the last digit by 2, i.e., 2 × 2 = 4. Subtract the remaining digits excluding the last digit by 4, 765–4 = 761. Repeat the process: 1 × 2 = 2. Now, subtract 2 from 76, 76–2 = 74. Since 74 is not a multiple of 191, 7652 is not divisible by 191.

 

  • 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.
