Question

Using the divisibility test, determine which of the following number is divisible by 6:

1258

Sum

Solution

Since the last digit of the number is 8, it is divisible by 2.

On adding all the digits of the number, the sum obtained is 16. Since 16 is not divisible by 3, the given number is also not divisible by 3.

As the number is not divisible by both 2 and 3, it is not divisible by 6.
