Question

Using divisibility tests, determine the given number $71,124$ is divisible by $6$.

Answer 1

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

Here, the given number is $71,124$. Since, ending digit is $4$, it will be divisible by $2$ and the Sum of the digits of the given number is $7+1+1+2+4=15$ which is a multiple of $3$, so it will also be divisible by $3$.

Therefore, the given number will also be divisible by $6$.
