Divisibility rules

  • Product of two consecutive whole numbers is divisible by 2
  • If a number is divisible by another number, then it is divisible by each of the factors of that number.
  • If a number is divisible by two coprime numbers, then it is divisibile by their product also.
  • If two given numbers are divisible by a number, then their sum is also divisible by that number.
  • If two given numbers are divisible by a number, then their difference is also divisible by that number.
