Question

Test the divisibility of following numbers by 11

5335

Answer 1

We know that, a number is divisible by 11, if the difference of sum of digits at even and odd places is either zero or divisible by 11.

We have, 5335

Sum of digits at even places from the right = 3 + 5 = 8

Sum of digits at odd places from the right = 5 + 3 = 8

So, difference = 8 – 8 = 0

Hence, it is divisible by 11.
