Divisibility Rules for Eight

In this video, Mr. J explains the divisibility rule for eight, which states that if the number formed by the last three digits of a number is divisible by eight, then the entire number is divisible by eight. The video goes through four examples to demonstrate this rule: 342,024, 184,778, 9,125,048, and 7,091,544. Each example is analyzed to determine if the last three digits are divisible by eight, confirming whether the whole number is divisible by eight. The video concludes with a summary of the rule.
