What is the Divisibility Rule of 386?

The divisibility rule for 386 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 386 or not without using the division method. Check whether 772 is divisible by 386 with the divisibility rule.  

 

Step 1: Check if the last three digits of the number are divisible by 386. In 772, the number is less than 386, so we can directly check it.

 

Step 2: Since 772 is twice 386 (386 × 2 = 772), it is divisible by 386.divisibility rule of 386

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 386

Learn the divisibility rule to help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 386.

 

  • Know the multiples of 386: Memorize the multiples of 386 (386, 772, 1158, 1544…etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the number is a multiple of 386, then it is divisible by 386.
     
  • Use smaller numbers: If dealing with large numbers, try breaking them down into smaller parts that are easier to handle when checking for divisibility.
     
  • Repeat the process for large numbers: Students should keep repeating the divisibility process if the number is very large by breaking it down into smaller parts. 
     
  • 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.
