What is the Divisibility Rule of 201?

The divisibility rule for 201 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 201 or not without using the division method. Check whether 402 is divisible by 201 with the divisibility rule.

 

Step 1: Add all the digits of the number, here in 402, the sum of the digits is 4 + 0 + 2 = 6.


Step 2: Multiply the result from Step 1 by 67 (as 201 divided by 3 equals 67). 6 × 67 = 402.


Step 3: As it is shown that the original number 402 equals the result from Step 2, the number is divisible by 201. If the result from Step 2 isn't equal to the original number, then it isn't divisible by 201.

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 201

Learning the divisibility rule will help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 201.

 

  • Know the multiples of 201: Memorize the multiples of 201 (201, 402, 603, 804…etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the result is equal to the original number, then it is divisible by 201.
     
  • Use approximation: If the result from the multiplication is close but not exact, consider it carefully, as rounding errors might indicate near divisibility.
     
  • Repeat the process for large numbers: Students should keep repeating the divisibility process until they reach a scenario where the multiplication result equals the original number.
     
  • 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.
