Question

Using divisibility tests,determine which of following two numbers are divisible by 6: a) 297144 b)1258

Answer 1

$\huge {\blue {\boxed {\boxed {\boxed {\underline{HELLO \: FRIEND!!!!!}}}}}}$

$\huge\bold {\mathfrak {Here \: is \: your \: answer \: }}$

$\underline \bold {Divisibility \: rule \: of \: 6}$

1. The number should be divisible by both 2 and 3.

$\bold {\huge {\color {red}{GIVEN \: NUMBERS : }}}$

a) 297144

↪As the given number is an even number, it is divisible by 2

↪Sum of digits = 2 + 9 + 7 + 1 + 4 +4

= 27

As 27 is divisible by 3, 297144 is divisible by 3

↪ 297144 is divisible by 6

b) 1258

↪As the given number is an even number, it is divisible by 2

↪ Sum of digits = 1 + 2 + 5 + 8

= 16

As 16 is not divisible by 3, 1258 is not divisible by 3

↪ 1258 is not divisible by 6
