Divisibility Rule of 458

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

The divisibility rule is a way to find out 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 458.

What is the Divisibility Rule of 458?

The divisibility rule for 458 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 458 or not without using the division method. Check whether 916 is divisible by 458 with the divisibility rule.

 

Step 1: If a number is divisible by 458, then it must be divisible by both 2 and 229 (since 458 = 2 × 229). 


Step 2: First, check if the number is even (divisible by 2). Here, in 916, the last digit is 6, which is even, so 916 is divisible by 2.


Step 3: Next, check divisibility by 229. This usually requires direct division or another specific method that applies to divisibility by 229.


Step 4: Since both conditions are met, 916 is divisible by 458.divisibility rule of 458

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 458

Learning the divisibility rule will help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 458.

 

  • Know the multiples of 458: Memorize the multiples of 458 (458, 916, 1374, etc.) to quickly check the divisibility. If a number matches a multiple of 458, then it is divisible by 458.
     
  • Check divisibility by 2 and 229: Ensure the number is even and check for divisibility by 229 as well.
     
  • 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.
