Divisibility Rule of 368

The divisibility rule for 368 is a method by which we can determine if a number is divisible by 368 without using the division method. Check whether 736 is divisible by 368 with the divisibility rule.
 

Step 1: Check if the number is divisible by 8 (since 368 ends in 8). For 736, we consider the last three digits, which are 736.

Step 2: Since 736 ÷ 8 = 92, it is divisible by 8.

Step 3: Now check if 92 is also divisible by 46 (since 368 = 8 × 46). Since 92 ÷ 46 = 2, it is divisible by 46.

Step 4: Thus, since the number passes both checks, it is divisible by 368.
 

Understanding divisibility rules will help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 368.
 

• Know the multiples of 368: Memorize the multiples of 368 (368, 736, 1104, etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the result from the operations is a multiple of 368, then the number is divisible by 368.
   
• Use the division method to verify: You can use the division method as a way to verify and cross-check results. This will help verify the results and reinforce learning.
   
• Break down the number: Since 368 = 8 × 46, break the number down to check divisibility by 8 and 46 separately.
   
• Simplify the process: For large numbers, use the breakdown approach to simplify the divisibility check by first confirming divisibility by 8 and then by 46.
   
• Practice regularly: Regular practice will help avoid confusion and improve accuracy in applying divisibility rules.
   

• Divisibility rule: The set of rules used to find out whether a number is divisible by another number or not.
   
• Multiples: Results obtained by multiplying a number by an integer, such as multiples of 368 being 368, 736, etc.
   
• Integers: Numbers that include all whole numbers, negative numbers, and zero.
   
• Factor: A number that divides another number exactly, such as 8 and 46 being factors of 368.
   
• Division: A mathematical operation to determine how many times one number is contained within another.
