3 <p>The divisibility rule is a way to find out whether a number is divisible by another number without using the division method. In real life, we can use the divisibility rule for quick math, dividing things evenly, and sorting things. In this topic, we will learn about the divisibility rule of 742.</p>

4 <h2>What is the Divisibility Rule of 742?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>divisibility rule</a>for 742 is a method by which we can find out if a<a>number</a>is divisible by 742 or not without using the<a>division</a>method . Check whether 1484 is divisible by 742 with the divisibility rule. </p>

6 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Separate the number into chunks<a>of</a>three digits from right to left. Here, 1484 becomes 1,484.</p>

7 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Subtract the first chunk from the second chunk, multiplying the first chunk by 2. That is, 2 × 1 = 2 and then 484 - 2 = 482.</p>

8 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>As it is not necessary for 482 to be a<a>multiple</a>of 742, the number is not divisible by 742. If the result from step 2 is a multiple of 742, then the number is divisible by 742.</p>

10 <h2>Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 742</h2>

11 <p>Learn the divisibility rule to help kids master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 742.</p>

12 <ul><li><strong>Know the multiples of 742:</strong>Memorize the multiples of 742 (742, 1484, 2226, etc.) to quickly check the divisibility. If the result from the<a>subtraction</a>is a multiple of 742, then the number is divisible by 742.</li>

13 </ul><ul><li><strong>Use the<a>absolute value</a>:</strong>If the result we get after the subtraction is negative, we will avoid the<a>symbol</a>and consider its absolute value for checking the divisibility.</li>

14 </ul><ul><li><strong>Repeat the process for large numbers: </strong>Students should keep repeating the divisibility process until they reach a small number that is divisible by 742.<p> For example: Check if 2226000 is divisible by 742 using the divisibility test.</p>

15 <p>Separate into chunks: 2,226,000 becomes 2,226,000. </p>

16 <p>Subtract: 0 - (2 × 2,226) = -4,452.</p>

17 <p> The absolute value of 4,452 is not a multiple of 742, hence the number is not divisible by 742.</p>

18 </li>

19 </ul><ul><li><strong>Use the division method to verify:</strong>Students can use the division method as a way to verify and cross-check their results. This will help them to verify and also learn.</li>

20 </ul><h2>Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in Divisibility Rule of 742</h2>

24 <h3>Problem 1</h3>

25 <p>Can 3710 be checked for divisibility by 742?</p>

26 <p>Okay, lets begin</p>

27 <p>No, 3710 is not divisible by 742.</p>

28 <h3>Explanation</h3>

29 <p>To determine if 3710 is divisible by 742, follow these steps. </p>

30 <p>1) Take the last digit of 3710, which is 0, and multiply it by 2, resulting in 0. </p>

31 <p>2) Subtract the result from the remaining digits, 371 - 0 = 371. </p>

32 <p>3) Since 371 is not a multiple of 742, 3710 is not divisible by 742.</p>

33 <p>Well explained 👍</p>

34 <h3>Problem 2</h3>

35 <p>Is 1484 divisible by 742 using the divisibility rule?</p>

36 <p>Okay, lets begin</p>

37 <p>Yes, 1484 is divisible by 742. </p>

38 <h3>Explanation</h3>

39 <p>To check if 1484 is divisible by 742, use the following method. </p>

40 <p>1) Multiply the last digit, 4, by 2 to get 8. </p>

41 <p>2) Subtract this from the remaining digits, 148 - 8 = 140. </p>

42 <p>3) Since 140 is a multiple of 742, 1484 is divisible by 742.</p>

43 <p>Well explained 👍</p>

44 <h3>Problem 3</h3>

45 <p>Determine if -2226 is divisible by 742.</p>

46 <p>Okay, lets begin</p>

47 <p>No, -2226 is not divisible by 742.</p>

48 <h3>Explanation</h3>

49 <p>Since the number is negative, check the positive equivalent. </p>

50 <p>1) Multiply the last digit, 6, by 2 to get 12. </p>

51 <p>2) Subtract the result from the remaining digits, 222 - 12 = 210. </p>

52 <p>3) 210 is not a multiple of 742, so -2226 is not divisible by 742.</p>

53 <p>Well explained 👍</p>

54 <h3>Problem 4</h3>

55 <p>Is 742 divisible by 742?</p>
