What is the Divisibility Rule of 146?

The divisibility rule for 146 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 146 or not without using the division method. Check whether 730 is divisible by 146 with the divisibility rule.
 

Step 1: Break down 146 into its prime factors: 146 = 2 × 73. Check if the number is divisible by 2 and 73.

Step 2: For divisibility by 2, the last digit of the number should be even. In 730, 0 is the last digit, which is even.

Step 3: For divisibility by 73, you can use long division or other estimation methods to check. Divide 730 by 73: 730 ÷ 73 = 10.

Step 4: Since both conditions (divisibility by 2 and 73) are met, 730 is divisible by 146.divisibility rule of 146

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 146

Learning the divisibility rule will help kids to master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 146.

  • Know the multiples of 146: Memorize the multiples of 146 (146, 292, 438, 584, etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the number is a multiple of 146, it is divisible by 146.
     
  • Check divisibility by 2: Ensure the last digit of the number is even. If the last digit is even, the number is divisible by 2.
     
  • Use estimation for divisibility by 73: Use estimation or division to check divisibility by 73 when dealing with larger numbers. Simplify the problem by breaking it into smaller, more manageable parts.
     
  • Use the division method to verify: Students can use the division method to verify and cross-check their results. This will help them to ensure accuracy and also learn.
