Question

Identify that the given number is divisible by $4$, by $8$, or by both: $50,000$

Answer 1

Step 1: Checking whether the given number is divisible by $4$ or not

To check whether the given number is divisible by $4$ or not we need to check that the last 2 digits of the number are divisible by $4$ or not.

We have, $50,000$

Since the last two digits are $00$, which is divisible by $4$, Hence the given number is divisible by $4$.

Step 2: Checking whether the given number is divisible by $8$ or not

To check whether the given number is divisible by $8$ or not we need to check that the last three digits of the given number are divisible by $8$ or not.

Since the last three digits are $000$, which is divisible by $8$, Hence the given number is divisible by $8$.

Thus, the given number is divisible by both $4$ and $8$.
