Divisibility Rules!

    To find if some number X is divisible by a certain number, test the number by using the information in the table below.

 By 2
 If the last digit divisible by two, then X is too
 By 3
 If the sum of the digits of the number X is divisible by three, then X is too
 By 4
 If the last two digits are divisible by four, then X is too
 By 5
 If the last digit is 5 or 0, then X is divisible by 5
 By 6
 If X is divisible by 2 and by 3, then X is divisible by 6
 By 7
 This rule is called L-2M. What you do is to double the last digit of the number X and subtract it from X without its last digit. For instance, if the number X you are testing is345678, you would subtract 16 from 34567. Repeat this procedure until you get a number that you know for sure is or is not divisible by seven. Then the X's divisibility will be the same.
 By 8
 If the last three digits are divisible by 8, then X is too
 By 9
 If the sum of the digits of the number X is divisible by nine, then X is too
 By 10
 If the last digit of X is 0, then X is divisible by 10
 By 11
 What you do here is to make two sums of digits and subtract them. The first sum is the sum of the first, third, fifth, seventh, etc. digits and the other sum is the sum of the second, fourth, sixth, eighth, etc. digits. If, when you subtract the sums from each other, the difference is divisible by 11, then the number X is too
 By 12
 If X is divisible by 4 and by 3, then X is divisible by 12
 By 13
 This rule is called L+4M. What you do is to quadruple the last digit of the number X and add it from X without its last digit. For instance, if the number X you are testing is345678, you would add 32 to 34567. Repeat this procedure until you get a number that you know for sure is or is not divisible by thirteen. Then the X's divisibility will be the same.
 By 14
 If X is divisible by 7 and by 2, then X is divisible by 14
 By 15
 If X is divisible by 5 and by 3, then X is divisible by 15
 By 16
 If the last four digits are divisible by 16, then X is too
 By17*
 This rule is called L-5M. See rules for 7 and 13 on how to apply.
 By 18
 If X is divisible by 9 and by 2, then X is divisible by 18
 By19*
 This rule is called L+2M. See rules for 7 and 13 on how to apply.
 By 20
 If X is divisible by 5 and by 4, then X is divisible by 20
 By 21
 If X is divisible by 7 and by 3, then X is divisible by 21
 By 22
 If X is divisible by 11 and by 2, then X is divisible by 22
 By 24
 If X is divisible by 8 and by 3, then X is divisible by 24
 By 25
 If the last two digits of X are divisible by 25, then X is too

 You can use multiple rules for multiple divisors...for instance, to check if a number is divisible by 57, check to see if it is divisible by 19 and 3, etc., since 57 = 19 x 3...
