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 660.</p>

4 <h2>What is the Divisibility Rule of 660?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>divisibility rule</a>for 660 is a method by which we can determine if a<a>number</a>is divisible by 660 or not without using the<a>division</a>method. To check the divisibility by 660, a number must be divisible by 2, 3, 5, and 11 as 660 is the<a>product</a><a>of</a>these numbers. Let's break it down:</p>

6 <p>1. Divisibility by 2: The number must end in an even digit (0, 2, 4, 6, 8).</p>

7 <p>2. Divisibility by 3: The<a>sum</a>of the digits of the number must be divisible by 3.</p>

8 <p>3. Divisibility by 5: The number must end in 0 or 5.</p>

9 <p>4. Divisibility by 11: The difference between the sum of the digits in odd positions and the sum in even positions must be a<a>multiple</a>of 11 or zero.</p>

10 <p>Check whether 6600 is divisible by 660 with the divisibility rule.</p>

11 <p>- Divisibility by 2: 6600 ends in 0, which is even.</p>

12 <p>- Divisibility by 3: Sum of digits = 6 + 6 + 0 + 0 = 12, which is divisible by 3.</p>

13 <p>- Divisibility by 5: 6600 ends in 0.</p>

14 <p>- Divisibility by 11: (6 + 0) - (6 + 0) = 0, which is a multiple of 11.</p>

15 <p>Since 6600 satisfies all these conditions, it is divisible by 660.</p>

16 <h2>Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 660</h2>

17 <p>Learn the divisibility rule to master division. Here are a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 660:</p>

18 <ul><li><strong>Memorize the rules for 2, 3, 5, and 11:</strong>Knowing the individual rules helps in quickly checking divisibility by 660. </li>

19 <li><strong>Check in<a>sequence</a>:</strong>Start with easier checks like divisibility by 5 and 2, then move to 3 and 11. </li>

20 <li><strong>Simplify large numbers:</strong>Break down larger numbers into blocks to apply the rules more easily. </li>

21 <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 helps in verification and learning.</li>

22 </ul><h2>Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in Divisibility Rule of 660</h2>

26 <h3>Problem 1</h3>

27 <p>Is 3960 divisible by 660?</p>

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

29 <p>Yes, 3960 is divisible by 660.</p>

30 <h3>Explanation</h3>

31 <p>To check if 3960 is divisible by 660, we need to verify divisibility by 2, 3, 5, and 11 (since 660 = 2 × 3 × 5 × 11). </p>

32 <p>1) The number 3960 is even, so it is divisible by 2.</p>

33 <p>2) Sum of digits is 3 + 9 + 6 + 0 = 18, which is divisible by 3.</p>

34 <p>3) The last digit is 0, so it is divisible by 5.</p>

35 <p>4) The alternating sum of digits is (3 + 6) - (9 + 0) = 9 - 9 = 0, which is divisible by 11.</p>

36 <p>Since 3960 is divisible by 2, 3, 5, and 11, it is divisible by 660.</p>

37 <p>Well explained 👍</p>

38 <h3>Problem 2</h3>

39 <p>Check the divisibility rule of 660 for 8580.</p>

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

41 <p>Yes, 8580 is divisible by 660.</p>

42 <h3>Explanation</h3>

43 <p>To check divisibility by 660, verify divisibility by 2, 3, 5, and 11.</p>

44 <p>1) The number 8580 is even, so it is divisible by 2.</p>

45 <p>2) Sum of digits is 8 + 5 + 8 + 0 = 21, which is divisible by 3.</p>

46 <p>3) The last digit is 0, so it is divisible by 5.</p>

47 <p>4) The alternating sum of digits is (8 + 8) - (5 + 0) = 16 - 5 = 11, which is divisible by 11.</p>

48 <p>Since 8580 is divisible by 2, 3, 5, and 11, it is divisible by 660.</p>
