Divisibility Rules and Digit Sums

The video tutorial by Mr. J explains the divisibility rule for 9. It states that if the sum of a number's digits is divisible by 9, then the number itself is divisible by 9. The video provides examples with numbers 107, 162, and 9414 to illustrate the rule. 107 is not divisible by 9 as its digits sum to 8, while 162 and 9414 are divisible as their digits sum to 9 and 18, respectively. The tutorial concludes with a prompt to check the description for a more detailed explanation.

What is the first step in determining if a number is divisible by nine?

• Add the digits together

• Subtract the digits from each other

• Divide the number by nine
