What is the Divisibility Rule of 815?

The divisibility rule for 815 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 815 or not without using the division method. Check whether 2445 is divisible by 815 with the divisibility rule.  


Step 1: Divide the number into parts that are easier to manage. In 2445, consider its components for simplification.


Step 2: Since 815 can be expressed as 5 × 163, check divisibility by 5 and 163.


Step 3: A number is divisible by 5 if its last digit is 0 or 5, and 2445 ends with 5.


Step 4: For divisibility by 163, use the division method to check if 2445 is divisible by 163.


Step 5: After confirming divisibility by both 5 and 163, conclude that 2445 is divisible by 815.

Problem 1

Is 2445 divisible by 815?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

No, 2445 is not divisible by 815.
 

Explanation

We check the divisibility of 2445 by 815 by dividing 2445 by 815. 2445 ÷ 815 ≈ 3.0006, which is not an integer. Therefore, 2445 is not divisible by 815.

Problem 2

Check the divisibility rule of 815 for 6520.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

No, 6520 is not divisible by 815.
 

Explanation

To determine if 6520 is divisible by 815, we divide 6520 by 815. 6520 ÷ 815 ≈ 8.0006, which is not an integer. Therefore, 6520 is not divisible by 815.

Problem 3

Is -1630 divisible by 815?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

Yes, -1630 is divisible by 815.
 

Explanation

To check if -1630 is divisible by 815, we ignore the negative sign and check the absolute value. 1630 ÷ 815 = 2, which is an integer. Therefore, -1630 is divisible by 815.
