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 253.
The divisibility rule for 253 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 253 or not without using the division method. Check whether 1518 is divisible by 253 with the divisibility rule.
Step 1: Multiply the last two digits of the number by a specific number (in this case, multiply by 4), here in 1518, 18 is the last two digits. Multiply it by 4. 18 × 4 = 72
Step 2: Subtract the result from Step 1 from the remaining values but do not include the last two digits. i.e., 15 - 72 = -57.
Step 3: As the result from Step 2 is not zero, and not a multiple of 253, the number is not divisible by 253. If the result from step 2 is zero or a multiple of 253, then the number is divisible by 253.
Learning the divisibility rule will help kids to master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 253.
