Question

is 26450 divisible by 6
​

Answer 1

Answer:

26450 IS NOT DIVISIBLE BY 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The divisibility rule of 6 states that-

if a number is divisible by 2 and 3, it will also be divisible by 6. So to check whether 26450 is divisible by 6, we just need to check if it is divisible by both, 2 and 3.

26450 ends with an even number, "0" and hence we say that it is completely divisible by 2.

Next, the sum of the digits of 26450 is 2+ 6+ 4+ 5+ 0 = 17.

Now, 17 is NOT divisible by 3.

∴ 26450 is divisible by 2, but not by 3. So, it will not be divisible by 6.

Answer 2

Answer:

The divisibility rule of 6 is when the number is divisible by 2 and 3 then the number is automatically divisible by 6.

Here, the number 26450 is divisible by 2 as the unit number is an even number

The number 26450 is not divisible by 3 as follows:

2 + 6 + 4 + 5 + 0 = 17

17 is not divisible by 3 so, the whole number is not divisible by 3.

Hence, the number 26450 is divisible by 2 but not 3.

Therefore, the number 26450 is not divisible by 6
