Question

Test the divisibility of the following number by 11:

66311

Sum

Solution

A number is divisible by 11 if the difference of the sum of its digits at odd places and the sum of its digits at even places is either 0 or a multiple of 11.

66311 is not divisible by 11.
Sum of the digits at odd places = (1 + 3 + 6) = 10
Sum of the digits at even places = (1 + 6) = 7
Difference of the two sums = (10 − 7) = 3, which is not divisible by 11.
