what is the smallest four digit number divisible by 6 and 1
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Rule 1: A number is divisible by 6 if it is divisible by 2 and 3.
Rule 2: A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3.
Rule 3: A number is divisible by 2 if the number is even.
So starting off with the smallest 4 digit number:
1000
It is divisible by 2
Sum of digits = 1 , which is not divisible by 3
1001
It is not divisible by 2
1002
It is divisible by 2 (from rule 3)
Sum of digits = 3, which is divisible by 3 (from rule 2)
Following rule 1, we have 1002 to be the smallest four digit number divisible by 6.

Answer:
smallest four digit number is 1000.For a number to be divisible by 6,it must be divisible by 2 and 3.
For a number to be divisible by 2 it must be an even number.For a number to be divisible by 3 sum of digits of number must be divisible by 3.
1000 is even number.But 1+0+0+0=1 which is not divisible by 3.Hence 1000 is not divisible by 3 and so 6.
The next even number is 1002.1+0+0+2=3 which is divisible by 3.
Since 1002 is divisible by both 2 and 3,it is divisible by 6.Thus the smallest 4 digit number divisible by 6 is 1002.
