Test the divisibility of the following numbers by 6:
934706
Advertisements
Solution
A number is divisible by 6 if it is divisible by both 2 and 3.
Since 934706 is not divisible by 3, it is not divisible by 6.
Checking the divisibility by 3: Since the sum of the digits of the number, 9 + 3 + 4 + 7 + 0 + 6, is 29, which is not divisible by 3. So, the number is not divisible by 3.
