What is the Divisibility Rule of 386?

The divisibility rule for 386 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 386 or not without using the division method. Check whether 772 is divisible by 386 with the divisibility rule.  

 

Step 1: Check if the last three digits of the number are divisible by 386. In 772, the number is less than 386, so we can directly check it.

 

Step 2: Since 772 is twice 386 (386 × 2 = 772), it is divisible by 386.divisibility rule of 386

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 386

Learn the divisibility rule to help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 386.

 

  • Know the multiples of 386: Memorize the multiples of 386 (386, 772, 1158, 1544…etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the number is a multiple of 386, then it is divisible by 386.
     
  • Use smaller numbers: If dealing with large numbers, try breaking them down into smaller parts that are easier to handle when checking for divisibility.
     
  • Repeat the process for large numbers: Students should keep repeating the divisibility process if the number is very large by breaking it down into smaller parts. 
     
  • 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.

Problem 3

Is 1930 divisible by 386?

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

No, 1930 is not divisible by 386.

Explanation

To check if 1930 is divisible by 386, divide 1930 by 386. The calculation is 1930 ÷ 386 ≈ 5.0000. Since the result is not a whole number, 1930 is not divisible by 386.
