<p><strong>Step 1</strong>: Multiply the last digit of the number by 9; here in 518, 8 is the last digit, so multiply it by 9. 8 × 9 = 72 </p>

<p>Students should keep repeating the divisibility process until they reach a small number that is divisible by 259. <strong>For example</strong>: Check if 1036 is divisible by 259 using the divisibility test. Multiply the last digit by 9, i.e., 6 × 9 = 54 Subtract the remaining digits excluding the last digit by 54, 103 - 54 = 49 Repeat the process: Multiply the last digit by 9, 9 × 9 = 81. Subtract 81 from the remaining numbers excluding the last digit, 4 - 81 = -77. As -77 is not a multiple of 259, 1036 is not divisible by 259.</p>
