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 211

What is the Divisibility Rule of 211?

The divisibility rule for 211 is a method by which we can determine if a number is divisible by 211 without using the division method. Let's check whether 4211 is divisible by 211 using the divisibility rule.

 

Step 1: Multiply the last digit of the number by 2, here in 4211, 1 is the last digit, multiply it by 2. 1 × 2 = 2.

 

Step 2: Subtract the result from Step 1 from the remaining values, excluding the last digit. i.e., 421–2 = 419.

 

Step 3: Divide the result from step 2 by 211. If the quotient is an integer, then the original number is divisible by 211. Here, 419 ÷ 211 does not yield an integer, so 4211 is not divisible by 211.
