  • Only even numbers are divisible by 2.
  • A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of the digits is in the three times table.
  • If the last 2 digits of a number are in the four times table then it is divisible by 4.
  • Only numbers ending in 0 or 5 are divisible by 5.
  • For a number to be divisible by 6, it has to be divisible by 2 AND 3.
  • The divisibility test for 7 is the hardest – take the last digit, multiply it by 2 and subtract from the other digits. If the answer is zero or in the seven times table then it is divisible by 7.
