6
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Double the last digit of the number, here in 4977, 7 is the last digit, so double it. 7 × 2 = 14.</p>
6
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Double the last digit of the number, here in 4977, 7 is the last digit, so double it. 7 × 2 = 14.</p>
7
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Subtract the result from Step 1 from the remaining values but do not include the last digit. i.e., 497-14 = 483.</p>
7
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Subtract the result from Step 1 from the remaining values but do not include the last digit. i.e., 497-14 = 483.</p>
8
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>As it is shown that 483 is not a<a>multiple</a>of 71, continue the process: double the last digit of 483, which is 3, so 3 × 2 = 6. Subtract 6 from the remaining part, 48-6 = 42.</p>
8
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>As it is shown that 483 is not a<a>multiple</a>of 71, continue the process: double the last digit of 483, which is 3, so 3 × 2 = 6. Subtract 6 from the remaining part, 48-6 = 42.</p>
9
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Since 42 is not a multiple of 71, 4977 is not divisible by 71. If the result from the steps becomes a multiple of 71, then the number is divisible by 71.</p>
9
<p><strong>Step 4:</strong>Since 42 is not a multiple of 71, 4977 is not divisible by 71. If the result from the steps becomes a multiple of 71, then the number is divisible by 71.</p>

<ul><li><strong>Know the multiples of 71:</strong> Memorize the multiples of 71 (71, 142, 213, 284…etc.) to quickly check the divisibility. The result from the<a>subtraction</a>should be a multiple of 71 for the number to be divisible by 71.</li>

</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 71.<p>For example, check if 5681 is divisible by 71 using the divisibility test. Double the last digit, 1 × 2 = 2. Subtract the remaining digits excluding the last digit by 2, 568-2 = 566.</p>

<p>Since 566 is a large number, continue the process: double the last digit of 566, 6 × 2 = 12. Subtract 12 from the remaining numbers excluding the last digit, 56-12 = 44.</p>

<p>Since 566 is a large number, continue the process: double the last digit of 566, 6 × 2 = 12. Subtract 12 from the remaining numbers excluding the last digit, 56-12 = 44.</p>
