Divisibility rules. “Divisible by”. From Lessons 1-4, we learned that number is “divisible by” another number when there is no remainder. Example: 21 is divisible by 7 (21 ÷ 7 = 3) 48 is divisible by 4 (48 ÷ 4 = 12)

“Divisible by” From Lessons 1-4, we learned that number is “divisible by” another number when there is no remainder. Example: 21 is divisible by 7 (21 ÷ 7 = 3) 48 is divisible by 4 (48 ÷ 4 = 12) 24 is not divisible by 5 (24 ÷ 5 = 4 r 4) 33 is not divisible by 2 (33 ÷ 2 = 16 r 1)
Calculator Test One way to determine if a number is divisible by another is to use a calculator. If the division gives results in a decimal, it is not divisible by that number Example: Look at these two calculations; which is not divisible by 2? 341 ÷ 2 = 170.5 248 ÷ 2 = 124
Calculator Test continued 341 ÷ 2 = 170.5 341 is not divisible by 2 (The quotient has a decimal, 170.5) -------------------------------------------------------------- 248 ÷ 2 = 124 248 is divisible by 2 (The quotient has no decimal, 124)
