What is the Divisibility Rule of 636?

The divisibility rule for 636 provides a method to ascertain if a number is divisible by 636 without traditional division. Let's check whether 1272 is divisible by 636 using this rule.

 

Step 1: Check if the number is divisible by 2, 3, and 53, as these are the factors of 636. First, determine if the number is even, which means it is divisible by 2. Here, 1272 is even, so it passes this test.

 

Step 2: Sum the digits of the number and check if the sum is divisible by 3. For 1272, the sum is 1+2+7+2=12. Since 12 is divisible by 3, 1272 passes this test.

 

Step 3: Check divisibility by 53 using division or a calculated method. Divide 1272 by 53, and if it results in an integer, then the number passes this test. 1272 ÷ 53 = 24, which is an integer.

 

Step 4: Since 1272 is divisible by 2, 3, and 53, it is divisible by 636.
