What is the Divisibility Rule of 775?

The divisibility rule for 775 is a method by which we can determine if a number is divisible by 775 without using the division method. Check whether 1550 is divisible by 775 using the divisibility rule.
 

Step 1: Recognize that a number is divisible by 775 if it is divisible by both 25 and 31 (since 775 = 25 × 31).
 

Step 2: To check divisibility by 25, the number should end in 00, 25, 50, or 75. Here, 1550 ends in 50, so it is divisible by 25.
 

Step 3: To check divisibility by 31, divide the remaining number (after confirming divisibility by 25) by 31. For 1550 divided by 25, we get 62. Now, check if 62 is divisible by 31. Since 62 ÷ 31 = 2, 62 is divisible by 31.

 

Therefore, the number 1550 is divisible by 775.divisibility rule of 775

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 775

Learning the divisibility rule helps kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 775.
 

  • Know the multiples of 775: Memorize the multiples of 775 to quickly check divisibility. If the result after division is a whole number, then the number is divisible by 775.
     
  • Use the component divisibility: First, check divisibility by 25, then by 31. If both conditions are satisfied, the number is divisible by 775.
     
  • Repeat the process for large numbers: If dealing with large numbers, break them down by checking divisibility by 25 and 31 separately.
     
  • Use the division method to verify: Students can use the division method to verify and cross-check their results. This helps in verification and learning.

Problem 1

Is the number of pages in a book, 6200, divisible by 775?

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

No, 6200 is not divisible by 775.

Explanation

To determine if 6200 is divisible by 775, we follow these steps:

1) Divide 6200 by 775 and check if the result is an integer.

2) 6200 ÷ 775 ≈ 8.0.

3) Since the result is exactly 8 with no remainder, 6200 is divisible by 775. However, if the remainder were not zero, it would not be divisible.
