Question
Find whether the following number is divisible by 11: 68717
Solution
A number is divisible by 11, if the difference of sum of its digits in odd places from the right side and the sum of its digits in even places from the right side is divisible by 11.
Sum of digits at odd places = 6 + 7 + 7 = 20
and, sum of digits at even places = 8 + 1 =9
Difference = 20 – 9 = 11
which is divisible by 11

Throw two dice together. What are the numbers that turn up on the faces of the dice? Make a two-digit number using them. If it is a multiple of any of the numbers written next to the circles, you can write it in that circle. Then it is your friend’s turn. The one who can write more numbers in 10 rounds is the winner.
Hint: I have 3 and 2 on my dice. If I make 23, it is not the multiple of any of the numbers. So I will make 32, which is a multiple of 4, and write it in the red circle.
