Divisibility Rule of 432

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 432.

What is the Divisibility Rule of 432?

The divisibility rule for 432 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 432 or not without using the division method. Check whether 5184 is divisible by 432 with the divisibility rule.

 

Step 1: Check divisibility by 16: The last four digits of the number should be divisible by 16. For 5184, the last four digits are 5184, which is divisible by 16 (5184 ÷ 16 = 324).

 

Step 2: Check divisibility by 27: Sum the digits of the number and check if the result is divisible by 27. For 5184, the sum of the digits is 5 + 1 + 8 + 4 = 18. Since 18 is not divisible by 27, 5184 is not divisible by 432

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 432

Learning the divisibility rule will help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 432.

 

Know the multiples of 432:

 

Memorize the multiples of 432 (432, 864, 1296, 1728, etc.) to quickly check the divisibility. If the number is a multiple of 432, then it is divisible by 432.

 

Break down large numbers:

 

For large numbers, first, break them down by checking divisibility by smaller factors (16 and 27) of 432. If a number is divisible by both 16 and 27, it is divisible by 432.

 

Use the division method to verify:

 

Students can use the division method as a way to verify and crosscheck their results. This will help them verify and also learn.
