<p><strong>Divisibility by 2:</strong>The number in the ones' place is 9, an<a>odd number</a>, so 699 is not divisible by 2.</p>
41
<p><strong>Divisibility by 3:</strong>The<a>sum</a>of the digits in the number 699 is 24. Since 24 is divisible by 3, 699 is also divisible by 3.</p>

<p><strong>Divisibility by 5:</strong>The unit’s place digit is 9. Therefore, 699 is not divisible by 5.</p>
41
<p><strong>Divisibility by 5:</strong>The unit’s place digit is 9. Therefore, 699 is not divisible by 5.</p>
43
<p><strong>Divisibility by 7:</strong>Doubling the last digit (9 × 2 = 18) and subtracting it from the rest of the number (69 - 18 = 51), we find 51 is divisible by 7, so 699 is divisible by 7.</p>
42
<p><strong>Divisibility by 7:</strong>Doubling the last digit (9 × 2 = 18) and subtracting it from the rest of the number (69 - 18 = 51), we find 51 is divisible by 7, so 699 is divisible by 7.</p>
44
<p><strong>Divisibility by 11:</strong>The sum of the digits in odd positions is 15, and the sum of the digits in even positions is 9. Their difference is 6, which is not divisible by 11.</p>
