Question

State true or false.
For an expression to be divisible by another algebraic expression, the divisor should be a factor of the dividend.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A

True

For an expression to be divisible by another algebraic expression, the divisor should be a factor of the dividend.
$Dividend=Divisor\times Quotient+Remainder$
If an expression is divisible by another algebraic expression, the remainder is 0.
So, the dividend is the product of divisor and quotient. Therefore, divisor and quotient are the factors of the dividend.
