No, it’s just that no one had come up with one back then. And honestly, the trick that Michael shows in this video isn’t a quick rule at all. Very time consuming. At that point it is faster to just divide the number by 7.

[@jeffw1267]

@@davidcole2913 I have a book from 1960 that shows a divisibility by 7 rule, though it's sort of complex. You have to match up six digits in the number to the series 132 645, working from the rightmost digit first. If your number is larger than six digits you start the 132 645 series again. Each digit in the series is multiplied by the corresponding number in the answer. For 362,880, working from the right, you'd get (1x0) + (3x8) + (2x8) + (6x2) + (4x6) + (5x3) = 91. Then you divide THAT by 7 and get a zero remainder. I think it's easier to just divide the number by 7 straight through, especially if you are doing the problem mentally.

[@indigofenrir7236]

@@jeffw1267 @jeffw1267 Double the last digit and subtract it from the remaining digits. Ex. 434 => 43 - 2(4) = 35, which is 7x5, so 434 is divisible by 7. Using Michael's method, 1/10(abc - c) - 2c 0.1abc - 0.1c - 2c 0.1abc - 2.1c 10(0.1abc - 2.1c) = abc - 21c 21c is just 7(3c), so it checks out.

There's a trick for 7 that's even easier: Separate the ones digit from the rest, double the ones digit, then subtract the 2 numbers. Here are some examples 903 separates into 90 and 3, double 3 to get 6, 90 - 6 = 84 which is divisible by 7. (903 = 7 x 129) 3171 separates into 317 and 1, double 1 to get 2, 317 - 2 = 315, which splits into 31 and 5, double 5 for 10, 31-10=21 which is divisible by 7. (3171 = 7 x 453) Note: If this process gives you 0, the original number is also divisible by 7

[@MrGamingANDfootball]

This is the one I know

[@ireallydontknow3299]

Oohhh, this is interesting. I suppose this is because adding -2 is the same as adding 5 modulo 7. As far as 7 is concerned, this is essentially the same as adding 5 times the last digit. Brilliant!

[@angelmendez-rivera351]

eventhorizon51 The reasoning is very similar. I am going to use three digits for the sake of simplicity for this proof, but it trivially generalizes to any number of digits larger than 2 via induction. Any 3-digit number is given by x = 100d(2) + 10d(1) + d(0), where d(i) is between 0 and 9 inclusive, except for d(2) excluding 0. The proposed method is 10d(2) + d(1) - 2d(0), but it works because 10d(2) + d(1) = (100d(2) + 10d(1))/10 = (100d(2) + 10d(1) + d(0) - d(0))/10 = (x - d(0))/10, and (x - d(0))/10 - 2d(0) = x/10 - 2.1d(0) = (x - 21d(0))/10, and 21 is divisible by 7.

[@randomnpc445]

This is also a much more useful shortcut if for some reason you don't have a calculator on hand. The one shown in the video is cool and all, but it's not very user friendly for larger numbers, not to mention having a bit of a complex process to it. This is a lot simpler and easier to follow.

[@ireallydontknow3299]

@@Aw3som3-117 I suppose only having to multiply by two will generate easier computations, so it might be slightly easier and faster than Michael's method.

Divisibility by each number: 2: Number is even i.e. last digit is 2,4,6,8,0 3: Sum of digits is a multiple of 3 4: Last 2 digits divisible by 4 5: Last digit is a 5 or a 0 6: Number is even and Sum of digits is a multiple of 3 7: Take 5× last digit and add to remaining digits OR take 2× last digit and subtract from remaining digits. Final total divisible by 7 8: Last 3 digits are divisible by 8 9: Sum of digits is a multiple of 9 10: Last digit is a 0 11: Alternate between Adding/Subtracting digits from left to right starting with Subtracting.

[@inderchopra430]

We can create multiple methods to solve the 7 one. Like multiplying unit digit by 1.5 and adding it to the rest should also work bcoz 1.5 - 0.1 is 1.4 But using whole numbers like 2 or 5 makes more sense I agree

[@dorijanlendvaj8356]

You can also, for example if the number is abcdefgh, look at h+3*g+2*f-e-3*d-2*c+b+3*a. Basically, going from the least significant to most significant digit you just repeat 1, 3, 2, -1, -3, -2. Much easier to do than the method shown in the video. As a bonus, all the other divisibility rules also preserve the remainder when divided by that number(for example, the sum of digits of 582 is 15 so it has a remainder of 6 when divided by 9). The rule for 7 shown in the video doesn't preserve the remainder, but this one does(but keep in mind that the remainder of -1 is 6, not 1).

Michael! I though of a way faster method to check divisibility by 7: 1. Take the leading two digits of the number. 2. Divide by 7 and find the remainder. 3. The remainder becomes the new leading term 4. Repeat until you recognize the number as divisible by 7 or not. E.g. 362,880: Not sure if divisible by 7 36->1 12,880: Not sure 12->5 5,880: Not sure 58->2 280: Pretty sure 28->0 0: Divisible by 7

Actually, there are divisibility tests for 7 that are simpler provided you have a fixed number of digits to work with. For example, if I want to work with 3 digits, then any number will expressible as 100a + 10b + c. 98a + 7b will always be divisible by 7, because 98 is divisible by 7, since 98 = 70 + 28, and 28 is divisible by 7. Therefore, one only need check if 2a + 3b + c is divisible by 7 to check if your 3-digit number is divisible by 7. The problem is that this does not generalize as easily to any other number of digits. For example, if you want to check for 4 digits, as in 1000a + 100b + 10c + d, you instead have to check if 6a + 2b + 3c + d is divisible by 7. In other words, the quantity you have to check depends on the number of digits. This does not require recursion, but it trades for having infinitely many rules, one for each number of digits.

@@angelmendez-rivera351 i was gonna say calm down its just a joke but that's actually a really cool point. It's not immediately obvious why 7 causes so many issues

[@Bluedragon2513]

A computer scientist's worst nightmare come alive

[@onemadscientist7305]

@@melovepeas The reason is that 7 is prime, and thus coprime with 10 (it shares no common factors with 10 other than 1). But, you say, it works with multiples of 3 ! And that's because 10 is 1 away from a multiple of three, which is actually a very special thing. Basically, there's no general rule... unless there is one. That is, it only works in special cases and in general you just have to go the recursive route. It's amazing how many things we take for granted about numbers when a lot of properties we think as intrinsic to the numbers themselves are actually dependent on the base being used.

[@PTNLemay]

7 is special boi

[@Leonardo-G]

Not exactly a divisibility rule, but: To check if a number is prime, you only have to check all primes up to its square root. For example: is 103 prime? It’s square root is between 10 and 11, so check 2, 3, 5, and 7. We know it’s odd and doesn’t end in 5 or 0, and that 1+0+3 =4. The only one left is 7, which we test with the trick in the video: 10 + 5(3) = 25, so 103 is not divisible by 7 and is therefore prime.

[@akkok5059]

why do we check with 2,3,5,7? Sorry I'm not really good lol

[@Waouben]

@@akkok5059 First why do we only check divisibility with prime numbers? Because non prime numbers can be written as the product of prime numbers. Why is that? Because if your number is divisible by a non prime number, you can divide the factor once more until only prime numbers remain. For example, let's take 20. 20=2×10. But 10 is non prime which means you can divide it. 10=2×5. In the end, 20=2×2×5. You only need to check prime numbers to know if your number is prime. The only prime numbers below 10 are 2, 3, 5 and 7.

[@Waouben]

@@akkok5059 Secondly, why only check up to the square root? If your number is divisible you can write it as n×N, with n

[@MrManiakKomputerowy]

@@akkok5059 Because the rest of numbers between 1 and 10 are product of primes. Take the number 103 and check divisibility by 2, then 3. Now we have 4, but if the number is divisible by 4 then it's also divisible by 2 and we checked that already. Next comes 5, then 6 but if the number is divisible by 6 then it's also divisible by 2 and 3 - we checked that already.

(The digital root of a number is sum all its digits and if this new number has more than one digit sum it again until you have only one digit which will be the digital number) And the digital root of any number multiple of 9 must be 9. Because 9 is the only number that don't change the result of a digital root. and mustn't be any number that change the original 9 in the digital root. For example 729=7+2+9=18=1+8=9 But 3729=3+7+2+9=21=2+1=3 And as you can see here: 73649163=3 73649163 *9* =3. 9 don't change the digital root. Also I wanna say it's because 9 add 1 ten and put out 1 unit so 9 don't change anything the value.

What i got told when trying to figure out the divisibility by 4 and 8 was to take a number, and you first divide it by 2. If the result is even than that number is divisible by 4. If you then take this newly divided number and you divide it by 2 again, and the result is even, than that number is also divisible by 8. This trick also works for the divisibility by 6. You take a number, x, and divide it by 2. If the sum of the digits of x/2 sum up to a number that is a multiple of 3, then x is divisible by 6.

[@june349]

For those of you who forgot the rules as soon as you stopped watching: 2: If the number is even, it can be divided by 2 3:Take all the digits in a given number and sum them up. If the resulting number is divisible by 3, the original number is divisible by 3 4: If the last 2 digits of the number form a number that is divisible by 4, the whole number is. OR. Take the 10s digit and double it, and then add to that the ones digit. If that number is divisible by 4, the original number is as well. 5: If the number ends in 0 or 5, it's divisible by 5 6: If the number is divisible by 3 and is even, it is divisible by 6 7: Take the 1s digit, and multiply it by 5. Then, add to it the remaining numbers as if it were its own number (the whole thing, not each individual digit). If the resulting number is divisible by 7, the original number is as well. 8: Take the hundreds digit, and multiply it by 4. To that, add the tens digit times 2. To that, add the ones digit. If the resulting number is divisible by 8, the original number is divisible by 8. 9: If the sum of all of the digits in a number is divisible by 9, the original number is divisible by 9 REMEMBER: All of these processes can be done multiple times if you are unsure if the resulting number is divisible by the number (1, 2, 3... ,9)
