What is the Divisibility Rule of 724?

The divisibility rule for 724 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 724 or not without using the division method. Check whether 1448 is divisible by 724 using the divisibility rule.

 

Step 1: Divide the number into two equal halves. Here, in 1448, the two halves are 14 and 48.


Step 2: Check if both halves are divisible by half of 724, which is 362.


Step 3: Since neither 14 nor 48 is divisible by 362, 1448 is not divisible by 724.divisibility rule of 724

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 724

Learning the divisibility rule will help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 724.

 

Know the multiples of 724:

 

Memorize the multiples of 724 (724, 1448, 2172, 2896, etc.) to quickly check divisibility.


Use approximation:

 

If you cannot quickly divide by 362, approximate it to 360 and check for rough divisibility.


Repeat the process for large numbers:

 

For large numbers, break them into smaller parts and test each part separately.

Problem 2

Check the divisibility rule of 724 for 1448.

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

No, 1448 is not divisible by 724. 

Explanation

To determine if 1448 is divisible by 724, we divide 1448 by 724.  


1) 1448 ÷ 724 = 2.  


2) The result is an integer, but with no remainder, it would be divisible, but here the operation does not leave a remainder zero, so it does not satisfy the conditions.

Problem 4

Can 362 be divisible by 724 following the divisibility rule?

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

No, 362 isn't divisible by 724.

Explanation

To check if 362 is divisible by 724, we divide 362 by 724.  


1) 362 ÷ 724 = 0.5.  


2) The result is not an integer, so 362 is not divisible by 724.

Problem 5

Check the divisibility rule of 724 for 7240.

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

Yes, 7240 is divisible by 724. 

Explanation

To verify if 7240 is divisible by 724, we divide 7240 by 724.  


1) 7240 ÷ 724 = 10.  


2) The result is an integer, so 7240 is divisible by 724.
