Question

Test the divisibility of the following number by 11:

137269

Answer 1

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.

137269 is divisible by 11.
Sum of the digits at odd places = (9 + 2 + 3) = 14
Sum of the digits at even places = (6 + 7 + 1) = 14
Difference of the two sums = (14 − 14) = 0, which is divisible by 11.
