Rule

A number is divisible by 11 if the difference between the sum of the digits at odd places (from the right) and the sum of the digits at even places (from the right) is either 0 or a multiple of 11.

CISCE: Class 6

Step-by-Step Explanation

CISCE: Class 6

Example

1.90816

  • Odd places (from right): 6 + 8 + 9 = 23
  •  Even places: 1 + 0 = 1
  •  Difference = 23 − 1 = 22
    22 ÷ 11 = 2 
    90816 is divisible by 11.

2. 1,27,446

  • Odd places: 6 + 4 + 2 = 12
  • Even places: 4 + 7 + 1 = 12
  • Difference = 12 − 12 = 0
    1,27,446 is divisible by 11.
CISCE: Class 6

Real-Life Applications

Suppose your school bus ticket number is 41273.

  • Odd places: 3 (1st) + 2 (3rd) + 4 (5th) = 9
  • Even places: 7 (2nd) + 1 (4th) = 8
  • Difference: 9 – 8 = 1
  • Is 1 a multiple of 11? No
  • So, 41273 is not divisible by 11.
CISCE: Class 6

Key Points Summary

  • Always start counting digit places from the right.
  • Odd and even places matter!
  • Subtract sums. Ignore minus signs.
  • If the result is 0 or a multiple of 11, it works!
