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 212.

What is the Divisibility Rule of 212?

The divisibility rule for 212 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 212 or not without using the division method. Check whether 63636 is divisible by 212 with the divisibility rule.  


Step 1: Check if the last three digits of the number form a number divisible by 212. Here, in 63636, the last three digits are 636. 


Step 2: Divide 636 by 212. If it results in an integer, then 63636 is divisible by 212. Here, 636 ÷ 212 = 3, which is an integer.


Step 3: Since the result is an integer, 63636 is divisible by 212. If the result from step 2 isn't an integer, then the number isn't divisible by 212.

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 212

Learning the divisibility rule will help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 212.

 

1. Know the multiples of 212:

 

Memorize the multiples of 212 (212, 424, 636, 848, etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the last three digits form a multiple of 212, the number is divisible by 212.

 

2. Use known divisible values:

 

If you recognize a common multiple or divisor within the last three digits, this can help verify divisibility quickly.

 

3. Repeat the process for large numbers:

 

Students should keep repeating the divisibility process for the last three digits until they reach a set of digits that is divisible by 212.

 

 

4. 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 verify and also learn.
