What is the Divisibility Rule of 528?

The divisibility rule for 528 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 528 or not without using the division method. Check whether 1056 is divisible by 528 with the divisibility rule.

 

Step 1: Check if the number is divisible by 2, 3, and 11. If a number is divisible by all three, it is divisible by 528.

 

- Divisibility by 2: 1056 ends in an even number, so it's divisible by 2.


- Divisibility by 3: Sum the digits of 1056, which are 1+0+5+6=12. Since 12 is divisible by 3, 1056 is divisible by 3.


- Divisibility by 11: Alternately subtract and add the digits of 1056 (1-0+5-6=0). Since 0 is divisible by 11, 1056 is divisible by 11.

 

Step 2: Since 1056 is divisible by 2, 3, and 11, it is divisible by 528.

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 528

Learning the divisibility rule will help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 528.

 

Know the prime factors of 528:

 

Recognize that 528 is made up of 2, 3, and 11. If a number is divisible by these factors, it is divisible by 528.

 

Use negative numbers:

 

If the result of checking divisibility by 11 is negative, consider its absolute value for checking divisibility.

 

Repeat the process for large numbers:

 

Students should continue to apply divisibility rules for large numbers by examining each factor (2, 3, and 11) independently.

 

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.
