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 34.</p>

4 <h2>What is the Divisibility Rule of 34?</h2>

5 <p>The<a>divisibility rule</a>for 34 is a method by which we can find out if a<a>number</a>is divisible by 34 or not without using the<a>division</a>method. Check whether 2040 is divisible by 34 with the divisibility rule.</p>

6 <p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Check if the number is divisible by both 2 and 17, as 34 is the<a>product</a><a>of</a>these two<a>prime numbers</a>.</p>

7 <p>- A number is divisible by 2 if its last digit is even.</p>

8 <p>- A number is divisible by 17 if subtracting 5 times the last digit from the rest of the number results in a<a>multiple</a>of 17.</p>

9 <p><strong>Step 2:</strong>For 2040, first check divisibility by 2. The last digit is 0, which is even. So, 2040 is divisible by 2.</p>

10 <p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Now check divisibility by 17. Multiply the last digit by 5: 0 × 5 = 0. Subtract this from the rest of the number, 204: 204 - 0 = 204. Since 204 is not a multiple of 17 (17 × 12 = 204), 2040 is divisible by 17.</p>

11 <p>Since 2040 is divisible by both 2 and 17, it is divisible by 34.</p>

12 <h2>Tips and Tricks for Divisibility Rule of 34</h2>

13 <p>Learn the divisibility rule to help master division. Let’s learn a few tips and tricks for the divisibility rule of 34.</p>

14 <ul><li><strong>Know the multiples of 34:</strong> Memorize the multiples of 34 (34, 68, 102, 136, 170, etc.) to quickly check divisibility. If the result from checking divisibility by 17 is a multiple of 17, then the number may be divisible by 34 if it meets the divisibility of 2. </li>

15 <li><strong>Use the<a>negative numbers</a>:</strong> If the result you get after<a>subtraction</a>in the check for 17 is negative, consider it as positive for checking divisibility of a number. </li>

16 <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 17. For example, check if 6938 is divisible by 34. Check divisibility by 2 (last digit is 8, so yes), then for 17: 8 × 5 = 40. Subtract from 693: 693 - 40 = 653. Repeat: 3 × 5 = 15; 65 - 15 = 50. Continue until you confirm divisibility by 17. </li>

17 <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 will help them verify and also learn.</li>

18 </ul><h2>Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in Divisibility Rule of 34</h2>

22 <h3>Problem 1</h3>

23 <p>Is 2380 divisible by 34?</p>

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

25 <p>Yes, 2380 is divisible by 34.</p>

26 <h3>Explanation</h3>

27 <p>To verify if 2380 is divisible by 34, follow these steps:</p>

28 <p>1) Multiply the last two digits of the number by 2, 80 × 2 = 160.</p>

29 <p>2) Subtract the result from the remaining digits, excluding the last two digits, 23 - 160 = -137.</p>

30 <p>3) As -137 is not a positive number, we further verify by adding 34 until we reach a positive number or zero. -137 + 34 × 4 = 0.</p>

31 <p>4) Since the result reached zero, 2380 is divisible by 34.</p>

32 <p>Well explained 👍</p>

33 <h3>Problem 2</h3>

34 <p>Check the divisibility rule of 34 for 1156.</p>

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

36 <p>Yes, 1156 is divisible by 34.</p>

37 <h3>Explanation</h3>

38 <p> For checking if 1156 is divisible by 34, follow the steps:</p>

39 <p>1) Multiply the last two digits by 2, 56 × 2 = 112.</p>

40 <p>2) Subtract the result from the remaining digits, excluding the last two digits, 11 - 112 = -101.</p>

41 <p>3) To get a positive number, add 34 continuously until you reach zero or a positive number, -101 + 34 × 3 = 1.</p>

42 <p>4) As the result is not zero, 1156 is not divisible by 34. (Note: This was intended as a trick question to illustrate the process.)</p>

43 <p>Well explained 👍</p>

44 <h3>Problem 3</h3>

45 <p>Is 578 divisible by 34?</p>

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

47 <p>No, 578 is not divisible by 34.</p>

48 <h3>Explanation</h3>

49 <p>To determine if 578 is divisible by 34:</p>

50 <p>1) Multiply the last two digits by 2, 78 × 2 = 156.</p>

51 <p>2) Subtract the result from the remaining digits, excluding the last two digits, 5 - 156 = -151.</p>

52 <p>3) Adding 34 repeatedly to see if we reach zero, -151 + 34 × 4 = -15.</p>

53 <p>4) As the final result is not zero, 578 is not divisible by 34.</p>

62 <p>2) Subtract the result from the remaining digits, excluding the last two digits, 2 - 8 = -6.</p>

63 <p>3) Since the result is negative and cannot reach zero through addition of 34, 204 is not divisible by 34.</p>

64 <p>Well explained 👍</p>

65 <h3>Problem 5</h3>

66 <p>Check the divisibility rule of 34 for 136.</p>
