What is the Divisibility Rule of 384?

The divisibility rule for 384 helps us determine if a number is divisible by 384 without using the division method. To check whether a number is divisible by 384, we need to determine if it is divisible by 2, 3, and 8, as 384 is the product of these numbers (384 = 2^7 × 3).

 

Step 1: Check divisibility by 2. A number is divisible by 2 if its last digit is even.

 

Step 2: Check divisibility by 3. Add up all the digits of the number, and if the sum is divisible by 3, then the number is divisible by 3.

 

Step 3: Check divisibility by 8. A number is divisible by 8 if the last three digits form a number that is divisible by 8.

 

Example: Check whether 768 is divisible by 384.

 

Step 1: Check divisibility by 2. The last digit of 768 is 8, which is even, so it is divisible by 2.

 

Step 2: Check divisibility by 3. The sum of the digits of 768 is 7 + 6 + 8 = 21, and 21 is divisible by 3.

 

Step 3: Check divisibility by 8. The last three digits of 768 are 768, and 768 ÷ 8 = 96, which is an integer. Therefore, 768 is divisible by 8.

 

Since 768 is divisible by 2, 3, and 8, it is also divisible by 384.divisibility rule of 384

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 384

Learning the divisibility rule helps students master division. Let's explore a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 384.

 

  • Understand the factors: Recognize that 384 is composed of the factors 2, 3, and 8. Ensure a number meets all these divisibility conditions.
     
  • Practice with multiples: Familiarize yourself with multiples of 384 (e.g., 384, 768, 1152) to quickly assess divisibility.
     
  • Double-check with smaller factors: If a number passes divisibility checks for 2, 3, and 8, it is divisible by 384.
     
  • Use the division method to verify: Students can use actual division to verify and cross-check their results, which helps reinforce their understanding.

Problem 1

Is 1920 divisible by 384?

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

Yes, 1920 is divisible by 384.

Explanation

To determine if 1920 is divisible by 384, follow these steps:  


1) Check if 1920 is divisible by 2. The last digit is 0, so it is divisible by 2.  


2) Check if 1920 is divisible by 3. Add the digits, 1 + 9 + 2 + 0 = 12, which is divisible by 3.  


3) Check if 1920 is divisible by 8. The last three digits are 920, which is not divisible by 8.  


Since the divisibility fails at step 3, 1920 is not divisible by 384.

Problem 2

Verify if 3072 is divisible by 384.

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

Yes, 3072 is divisible by 384.

Explanation

To confirm divisibility of 3072 by 384, follow these steps:


1) Check if 3072 is divisible by 2. The last digit is 2, so it is divisible by 2.  


2) Check if 3072 is divisible by 3. Add the digits, 3 + 0 + 7 + 2 = 12, which is divisible by 3.  


3) Check if 3072 is divisible by 8. The last three digits are 072, and 72 is divisible by 8.  


Since all conditions are met, 3072 is divisible by 384.

Problem 3

Determine if 576 is divisible by 384.

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

No, 576 is not divisible by 384.

Explanation

To check divisibility of 576 by 384, follow these steps:  


1) Check if 576 is divisible by 2. The last digit is 6, so it is divisible by 2.  


2) Check if 576 is divisible by 3. Add the digits, 5 + 7 + 6 = 18, which is divisible by 3.  


3) Check if 576 is divisible by 8. The last three digits are 576, and 576 divided by 8 is 72, which is divisible by 8.  


Since all conditions are met, 576 is divisible by 384.

Problem 4

Can 1536 be divisible by 384?

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

Yes, 1536 is divisible by 384.

Explanation

To verify divisibility of 1536 by 384, follow these steps:  


1) Check if 1536 is divisible by 2. The last digit is 6, so it is divisible by 2.  


2) Check if 1536 is divisible by 3. Add the digits, 1 + 5 + 3 + 6 = 15, which is divisible by 3.  


3) Check if 1536 is divisible by 8. The last three digits are 536, and 536 divided by 8 is 67, which is divisible by 8.  


Since all conditions are met, 1536 is divisible by 384.
