809728


Open in App
Solution

We know that A number is divisible by 6, if it is divisible by 2 and 3 both

In other words we say that A number is divisible by 6, if it is an even number and divisible by 3

809728

Here first we check the divisibility of 2

unit place is 8 so we say the number is divisible by 2.

Now check the divisibility of 3

Sum of digit is divisible by 3

So the sum of digit is 8+0+9+7+2+8=34

34 is not divisible by 3

so the number is not divisible by 3

Hence the number 75642 is not divisible by 6.
