Divisibility Rule of 608

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 608.

What is the Divisibility Rule of 608?

The divisibility rule for 608 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 608 or not without using the division method. Check whether 4864 is divisible by 608 with the divisibility rule.

Step 1: Divide the number into its hundreds, tens, and units. For 4864, it can be split into 4000, 800, 60, and 4. 

Step 2: Check if each component is divisible by 608. In this case, 4000 is not divisible, but let's check 800 + 60 + 4 = 864.

Step 3: If the sum of these components (864 in this example) is divisible by 608, then the original number is also divisible by 608. Since 864 is not divisible by 608, 4864 is not divisible by 608.

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 608

Learn the divisibility rule to help master the division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 608.

Know the multiples of 608: Memorize the multiples of 608 (608, 1216, 1824, 2432, etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the sum of the components is a multiple of 608, then the number is divisible by 608.

Use the largest divisible components: If the number has easily separable large components that are multiples of 608, check those first.

Repeat the process for large numbers: For larger numbers, keep breaking them into smaller components and check each one. For example, check if 12160 is divisible by 608. Break it into 12000 and 160. Since 12000 is not divisible, check 160, which is not divisible by 608 either.

Use the division method to verify: Verify your results using the division method to ensure accuracy and understanding.
