What is the Divisibility Rule of 683?

The divisibility rule for 683 is a method to find out if a number is divisible by 683 without using the division method. Check whether 2049 is divisible by 683 using this rule.
 

Step 1: Multiply the last digit of the number by 5; in 2049, 9 is the last digit, so multiply it by 5. 9 × 5 = 45
 

Step 2: Subtract the result from Step 1 from the remaining values, excluding the last digit. That is, 204 – 45 = 159.
 

Step 3: As it is evident that 159 is not a multiple of 683, the number is not divisible by 683. If the result from Step 2 were a multiple of 683, then the number would be divisible by 683.divisibility rule of 683

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 683

Learning the divisibility rule can help students master division. Let’s explore a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 683.
 

  • Know the multiples of 683: Memorize the multiples of 683 (683, 1366, 2049, etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the result from subtraction is a multiple of 683, then the number is divisible by 683.
     
  • Use negative numbers: If the result obtained after subtraction is negative, ignore the negative sign and consider it as positive for checking divisibility.
     
  • Repeat the process for large numbers: Students should continue repeating the divisibility process until they reach a small number that is divisible by 683.

    For example, check if 4098 is divisible by 683 using the divisibility test. Multiply the last digit by 5, i.e., 8 × 5 = 40.

    Subtract the remaining digits excluding the last digit by 40, 409 – 40 = 369.

    Since 369 is not a multiple of 683, 4098 is not divisible by 683.
     
  • Use the division method to verify: Students can verify their results by using the division method. This helps them confirm their findings and learn the process better.

Problem 1

Is 2049 divisible by 683?

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

Yes, 2049 is divisible by 683.

Explanation

To check if 2049 is divisible by 683, divide 2049 by 683.
 
1) Perform the division: 2049 ÷ 683 = 3.  

2) As the result is a whole number, 2049 is divisible by 683.

Problem 2

Check the divisibility rule of 683 for 1366.

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

No, 1366 is not divisible by 683.

Explanation

To check if 1366 is divisible by 683, divide 1366 by 683.  

1) Perform the division: 1366 ÷ 683 = 2.  

2) The result is a whole number, but the quotient must be an integer without remainder.  

3) Since 1366 does not fully divide into 683 (it’s a whole number, but not without remainder), it is not divisible by 683.

Problem 3

Is -2049 divisible by 683?

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

Yes, -2049 is divisible by 683.

Explanation

To check if -2049 is divisible by 683, we consider the positive equivalent.  

1) Divide the absolute value: 2049 ÷ 683 = 3.
 
2) As the result is a whole number, -2049 is divisible by 683.

Problem 4

Can 2732 be divisible by 683 following the divisibility rule?

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

Yes, 2732 is divisible by 683. 

Explanation

To check if 2732 is divisible by 683, perform the division.  

1) Divide 2732 by 683: 2732 ÷ 683 = 4.  

2) The result is a whole number, hence 2732 is divisible by 683.

Problem 5

Check the divisibility rule of 683 for 1366, but using a different approach.

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

No, 1366 is not divisible by 683.

Explanation

We have already divided 1366 by 683 and found it does not divide without remainder.  

1) Repeat the division: 1366 ÷ 683 = 2.  

2) This confirms that 1366 is not divisible by 683, as it doesn’t divide evenly.
