Rule

Look at the last three digits of the number.
If these digits form a number that is divisible by 8, the whole number is divisible by 8.

Real-Life Application

Imagine you have 1,000 candies and want to pack them into boxes of 8, with no candy left over.
1,000 ÷ 8 = 125, remainder 0.
So, all candies can be packed evenly!

CISCE: Class 6

Key Points Summary

  • Always check the last three digits.

  • For numbers less than 1,000, use the whole number.

  • Numbers ending in “000” (like 12,000) are always divisible by 8.
