Divisibility test of 1

Every number is divisible by 1. Divisibility rule for 1 doesn't have any condition. Any number divided by 1 will give the number itself, irrespective of how large the number is. For example, 3 is divisible by 1 and 3000 is also divisible by 1 completely.

Divisibility test of 2

A number is divisible by 2 if the last digit of the number is 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8. Example 1: Is the number 246 divisible by 2? Solution: Since the last digit of the number 246 ends in 6, that means it is divisible by 2.

divisibility test of 3

Subtract the quantity of the digits 2, 5, and 8 in the number from the quantity of the digits 1, 4, and 7 in the number. The result must be divisible by 3.

Divisibility test of 4

The basic rule for divisibility by 4 is that if the number formed by the last two digits in a number is divisible by 4, the original number is divisible by 4; this is because 100 is divisible by 4 and so adding hundreds, thousands, etc. is simply adding another number that is divisible by 4.

divisibility test of 5

Divisibility by 5 is easily determined by checking the last digit in the number (475), and seeing if it is either 0 or 5. If the last number is either 0 or 5, the entire number is divisible by 5. If the last digit in the number is 0, then the result will be the remaining digits multiplied by 2.
