Answer:
- 2101 - divisible by 11
- 32571 - divisible by 11
- 35064 - is not divisible by 11
- 20833 - is not divisible by 11
Step-by-step explanation:
Rule: The divisibility by 11 rule states that if the difference between the sum of the digits at the odd and even places equals 0 or divisible by 11, then the number is divisible by 11.
- 2101
Sum of even place digit = 1 + 1 = 2
Sum of odd place digit = 2 + 0 = 2
Here Sum of even place digit = Sum of odd place digit
So, 2101 is divisible by 11.
- 32571
Sum of even place digit = 2 + 7 = 9
Sum of odd place digit = 3 + 5 + 1 = 9
Here Sum of even place digit = Sum of odd place digit
So, 32571 is divisible by 11.
- 35064
Sum of even place digit = 5 + 6 = 11
Sum of odd place digit = 3 + 0 + 4 = 7
Here Sum of even place digit ≠ Sum of odd place digit
So, 35064 is not divisible by 11.
- 20833
Sum of even place digit = 0 + 3 = 3
Sum of odd place digit = 2 + 8 + 3 = 13
Here Sum of even place digit ≠ Sum of odd place digit
So, 20833 is not divisible by 11.
