<p><strong>Divisibility by 5:</strong>The unit’s place digit is 7. Therefore, 1137 is not divisible by 5.</p>
44
<p><strong>Divisibility by 5:</strong>The unit’s place digit is 7. Therefore, 1137 is not divisible by 5.</p>
46
<p><strong>Divisibility by 7:</strong>To check divisibility by 7, double the last digit (7 × 2 = 14). Then, subtract it from the rest of the number (113 - 14 = 99). Since 99 is divisible by 7, 1137 is also divisible by 7.</p>

<p><strong>Divisibility by 7:</strong>To check divisibility by 7, double the last digit (7 × 2 = 14). Then, subtract it from the rest of the number (113 - 14 = 99). Since 99 is divisible by 7, 1137 is also divisible by 7.</p>
47
<p><strong>Divisibility by 11:</strong>In 1137, the sum of the digits in odd positions is 4 (1+3), and the sum of the digits in even positions is 8 (1+7). The difference is 4. Therefore, 1137 is not divisible by 11.</p>
