Factors and multiples - 4


Divisibility Tests (Continued…)


In the last post, we discussed about divisibility tests of various numbers. At the end of it, there was a quiz. It is assumed that you were able to figure out the answers.

This post will give you some practice questions to test your understanding. In case you find any face difficulty, drop a comment or a mail.

                                                               i.      Form the biggest five digit number (without repeating any digit) which is divisible by 2.
                                                             ii.      Form the smallest five digit number (without repeating any digit) which is divisible by 2.
                                                            iii.      Form the biggest five digit number (without repeating any digit) which is divisible by 3.
                                                           iv.      Form the smallest five digit number (without repeating any digit) which is divisible by 3.
b.      With the digits 9, 2, 5, 4, 0,
                                                               i.      Form the biggest five digit number (without repeating any digit) which is divisible by 5.
