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 divisibility rules for quick math, dividing things evenly, and sorting items. In this topic, we will learn about the divisibility rule of 988.</p>

4 <h2>What is the Divisibility Rule of 988?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>divisibility rule</a>for 988 is a method by which we can determine if a<a>number</a>is divisible by 988 without performing the<a>division</a>method. Check whether 1976 is divisible by 988 with the divisibility rule.</p>

6 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Divide the number into groups of three digits starting from the right. Here in 1976, it becomes 1,976.</p>

7 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Consider only the last group of three digits for now, i.e., 976. Subtract it from the number formed by the remaining groups. Here, 1 - 976 = -975.</p>

8 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Check if the result is a<a>multiple</a>of 988. If it is, the original number is divisible by 988. Since -975 is not a multiple of 988, 1976 is not divisible by 988.</p>
