What is the Divisibility Rule of 170?

The divisibility rule for 170 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 170 or not without using the division method. Check whether 340 is divisible by 170 using the divisibility rule.
 

Step 1: Check if the number is divisible by both 10 and 17. For 340, since it ends with 0, it is divisible by 10.
 

Step 2: Check if the remaining number, after removing the last digit, is divisible by 17. For 34, since 34 divided by 17 equals 2, it is divisible by 17.
 

Since 340 is divisible by both 10 and 17, it is divisible by 170.
