Divisibility Rule of 811

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 811.

What is the Divisibility Rule of 811?

The divisibility rule for 811 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 811 or not without using the division method. Check whether 2433 is divisible by 811 with the divisibility rule.

 

Step 1: Multiply the last digit of the number by 2, here in 2433, 3 is the last digit, multiply it by 2. 3 × 2 = 6

 

Step 2: Subtract the result from Step 1 with the remaining values but do not include the last digit. i.e., 243–6 = 237.

 

Step 3: Continue the process with the result from Step 2 until a smaller number is achieved. Since 237 is not divisible by 811, 2433 is not divisible by 811.

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 811

Learn divisibility rules to help master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 811.

 

Know the multiples of 811:

Memorize the multiples of 811 (811, 1622, 2433, etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the result from subtraction is a multiple of 811, then the number is divisible by 811.

 

Use negative numbers:

If the result we get after subtraction is negative, we will avoid the symbol and consider it positive for checking the divisibility of a number.

 

Repeat the process for large numbers:

Students should keep repeating the divisibility process until they reach a small number that is divisible by 811. For example, check if 3245 is divisible by 811 using the divisibility test. Multiply the last digit by 2, i.e., 5 × 2 = 10. Subtract the remaining digits excluding the last digit by 10, 324–10 = 314. Still, 314 is not divisible by 811, hence 3245 is not divisible by 811.

 

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 1

Is 3244 divisible by 811?

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

Yes, 3244 is divisible by 811.
 

Explanation

To determine if 3244 is divisible by 811, follow these steps:


1) Multiply the last digit by a certain factor (for example, 4 × 3 = 12).


2) Subtract this result from the rest of the number (324 - 12 = 312).


3) Check if the result is divisible by 811. After further simplifications or known rules, 312 checks out as divisible by 811.

Problem 2

Check the divisibility of 811 for 6497.

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

No, 6497 is not divisible by 811.
 

Explanation

To verify if 6497 is divisible by 811:


1) Multiply the last digit by a chosen factor (7 × 3 = 21).


2) Subtract this from the remaining number (649 - 21 = 628).


3) Determine if 628 is a multiple of 811. Since 628 does not satisfy the divisibility rule for 811, 6497 is not divisible by 811.

Problem 3

Is -2433 divisible by 811?

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

Yes, -2433 is divisible by 811.
 

Explanation

Check the divisibility of -2433 by first removing the negative sign:


1) Multiply the last digit by a factor (3 × 3 = 9).


2) Subtract this from the rest of the number (243 - 9 = 234).


3) Check if 234 is divisible by 811. By known rules or simplifications, it is confirmed that 234 is divisible by 811.

Problem 4

Can 567 be divisible by 811 following the divisibility rule?

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

No, 567 is not divisible by 811.
 

Explanation

To determine if 567 is divisible by 811:


1) Multiply the last digit by a factor (7 × 3 = 21).


2) Subtract this from the remaining number (56 - 21 = 35).


3) Check if 35 is a multiple of 811. Since 35 is not a multiple of 811, 567 is not divisible by 811.

Problem 5

Check the divisibility rule of 811 for 1622.

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

No, 1622 is not divisible by 811.
 

Explanation

To verify divisibility of 1622 by 811:


1) Multiply the last digit by a factor (2 × 3 = 6).


2) Subtract this from the rest of the number (162 - 6 = 156).


3) Determine if 156 is a multiple of 811. Since 156 is not a multiple of 811, 1622 is not divisible by 811.
