What is the Divisibility Rule of 662?

The divisibility rule for 662 is a method by which we can determine if a number is divisible by 662 or not without using the division method. Check whether 1986 is divisible by 662 using the divisibility rule.

Step 1: Divide the number into groups that align with the factors of 662. The factors of 662 are 2, 331, and 1. First, check divisibility by 2.


Step 2: Since 1986 is even, it is divisible by 2. Now, check divisibility by 331.


Step 3: To check, perform the division of 993 (1986 divided by 2) by 331. If the result is a whole number, then 1986 is divisible by 662.


Step 4: Since 993 divided by 331 equals 3, which is a whole number, 1986 is divisible by 662.divisibility rule of 662

Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 662

  • Know the factors of 662: Memorize that 662 is divisible by 2 and 331. Check divisibility by these factors to determine if the number is divisible by 662.
     
  • Use the divisibility rule of smaller factors: Start by checking smaller factors like 2 before moving to larger factors like 331 for easier calculations.
     
  • Repeat the process for large numbers: For large numbers, repeat the divisibility test for each factor until you confirm divisibility by 662.
     
  • Use the division method to verify: Students can use the division method to verify and crosscheck their results. This will help them to confirm and also learn.

Problem 1

Is 1986 divisible by 662?

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

No, 1986 is not divisible by 662.

Explanation

To determine if 1986 is divisible by 662, let's use the divisibility rule.


1) Multiply the last two digits of the number by 6, 86 × 6 = 516.


2) Subtract the result from the remaining digits, excluding the last two digits, 19 - 516 = -497.


3) Since -497 is not a multiple of 662, 1986 is not divisible by 662.

Problem 2

Check the divisibility rule of 662 for 1324.

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

No, 1324 is not divisible by 662.

Explanation

To apply the divisibility rule of 662 for 1324,


1) Multiply the last two digits of the number by 6, 24 × 6 = 144.


2) Subtract the result from the remaining digits, excluding the last two digits, 13 - 144 = -131.


3) -131 is not a multiple of 662, so 1324 is not divisible by 662.

Problem 4

Can 2648 be divisible by 662 following the divisibility rule?

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

No, 2648 isn't divisible by 662.

Explanation

To check if 2648 is divisible by 662 by the divisibility rule, follow the steps,


1) Multiply the last two digits of the number by 6, 48 × 6 = 288.


2) Subtract the result from the remaining digits, excluding the last two digits, 26 - 288 = -262.


3) Since -262 is not a multiple of 662, 2648 is not divisible by 662.
