Question

Test the divisibility of the following number by 11:

8790322

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.

8790322 is not divisible by 11.
Sum of the digits at odd places = (2 + 3 + 9 + 8) = 22
Sum of the digits at even places = (2 + 0 + 7) = 9
Difference of the two sums = (22 − 9) = 13, which is not divisible by 11.
