Divisibility Rule of 825

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 825.

What is the Divisibility Rule of 825?

The divisibility rule for 825 is a method by which we can find out if a number is divisible by 825 or not without using the division method. Check whether 4950 is divisible by 825 with the divisibility rule.  


Step 1: Check divisibility by 5. A number is divisible by 5 if it ends in 0 or 5. In 4950, the last digit is 0, so it is divisible by 5.


Step 2: Check divisibility by 3. Add the digits of the number: 4+9+5+0=18. Since 18 is divisible by 3, 4950 is also divisible by 3.


Step 3: Check divisibility by 11. Subtract the sum of alternate digits: (4+5)-(9+0)=9-9=0. Since 0 is divisible by 11, 4950 is divisible by 11.


Step 4: Since 4950 is divisible by 5, 3, and 11, it is also divisible by 825 (5×3×11=825).

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 825

Learning the divisibility rule will help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 825.

 

Know the prime factorization of 825:

 


825 = 5 × 3 × 11 × 5. A number must be divisible by all these factors to be divisible by 825.

 

Use the divisibility rules for 5, 3, and 11:

 


   - For 5: Check if the number ends in 0 or 5.
   - For 3: Check if the sum of the digits is divisible by 3.
   - For 11: Subtract the sum of the digits in odd positions from the sum of the digits in even positions. If the result is 0 or a multiple of 11, the number is divisible by 11.

 

Check for large numbers:

 


   If the number is large, break it down by checking divisibility for each factor separately (5, 3, and 11).

 

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 verify and also learn.
