Tell whether the first number is divisible by the second number. 1. 150 and 5 2. 22,222 and 3 3. 40,001 and 2

plug it into a calculator

Parth (parthkohli):

No, use divisibility tests.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for instance 150/5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or do it the easy way

Parth (parthkohli):

If a number is divisible by 5, it ends with 0 or 5. If a number is divisible by 3, then when you sum all its digits, you get a number divisible by 3. If a number is divisible by 2, then its unit digits end with an even number -- 0,2,4,6,8

Parth (parthkohli):

460 is divisible by 5 because it ends with 0. 123 is divisible by 3 because 1 + 2 + 3 = 6 which is divisible by 3. 2737180 is divisible by 2 because its unit digit ends with an even number (0).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so is number 2 divisible by 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

plug it in we are not going to do your hw for you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so its not divisible by three because it has remainder left right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks
