<p>To check divisibility by 12, a number must be divisible by both 3 and 4. 1) For divisibility by 3, sum the digits: 2 + 6 + 4 = 12. Since 12 is divisible by 3, 264 passes the first test. 2) For divisibility by 4, check the last two digits: 64. Since 64 is divisible by 4, 264 passes the second test. Therefore, 264 is divisible by 12.</p>

<p>We need to check divisibility by both 3 and 4. 1) For divisibility by 3, sum the digits: 9 + 1 + 0 = 10. Since 10 is not divisible by 3, 910 fails the first test. 2) Even if it fails the first test, let's check for divisibility by 4: the last two digits are 10. Since 10 is not divisible by 4, 910 fails the second test as well. Therefore, 910 is not divisible by 12.</p>
