Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

The divisibility rule is a way to determine 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 899.

What is the Divisibility Rule of 899?

The divisibility rule for 899 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 899 or not without using the division method. Check whether 1798 is divisible by 899 with the divisibility rule.

 

Step 1: Divide the number into two parts, the last three digits and the remaining digits. Here in 1798, the parts are 798 and 1.

 

Step 2: Double the remaining digits and add the last three digits to this result. So, 1 × 2 = 2, and 2 + 798 = 800.

 

Step 3: If the result from step 2 is a multiple of 899, then the original number is divisible by 899. Since 800 is not a multiple of 899, 1798 is not divisible by 899.
