Divisibility rules for 14:–
A number is divisible by 14, if the number is divisible by 2 and by 7.
Example- 294
- 294 is divisible 2 because its last digit is 4.
- 294 is divisible by 7 as (two times of last digit is 8.and 29-8=21 which is divisible by 7).
Hence 294 is divisible by 14.
Divisibility rules for 15:-
A number is divisible by 15, if the number is divisible by 3 and by 5.
Example: – Check 720 is divisible by 15 or not?
· First check 720 is divisible by 3 or not. According to the divisibility rule by 3(sum of its digit=7+2+0=9, which is divisible by 3), 720 is divisible by 3.
· And now check 720 is divisible by 5 or not.
Divisibility rule 5- if unit digit of the number is either 0 or 5, then number is divisible by 5.Here 720 is the given number and unit digit is 0.So 720 is divisible by 5.
720 is divisible by both 3 and 5.Hence 720 is divisible by 15.
Divisibility rules for 16:–
Add last two digit of a number to the four times of the rest of that given number. The result must be divisible by 16.
Example: – Check 1008 is divisible by 16 or not?
· Last two digit 0 and 8.
· Four times of the rest of the number. i.e. =10*4=40.
· Add 08 and 40.i.e. =40+8=48.That is divisible by 16.
Hence, 1008 is divisible by 16.
Divisibility Rules for 17:
Subtract five times of the unit digit from remaining number, if the result is 0
or divisible by 17 then the number is divisible by 17.
Example- check 357 is divisible by 17 or not.
· Calculate five times of the unit digit of given number i.e. 7*5=35.
· Subtract above multiplication value from remaining number.i.e.35-35=0
· If result is 0 or divisible by 17 then the given number is divisible by 17. Here ‘0’ came as result. Hence, 357 is divisible by 17.

576 is divisible by 2 as its last/unit digit is 0, 2,4,6,8.
576 is divisible by 9 as its sum of digits is=5+7+6=18.
Which is divisible by 9.
Divisibility Rules for 19:
Add two times the unit/last digit of the number to the rest of the number and if the result is divisible by 19 then the given number is divisible by 19.
Example: – check 437 is divisible by 19 or not?
§ Last digit of the number is =7
§ Double the last digit means 7*2=14
§ Now add 14 to the rest of the number 43. Result=43+14=57.
§ Which is divisible by 19.
Divisibility Rules for 20:
A number is divisible by 20 if it is divisible by 10 and its tens digit is even.
Example: – check 564720 is divisible by 20 or not?
· 564720 is divisible by 10 as its unit digit is 0.
· And its tens digit is even (2).
Hence 564720 is divisible by 20.
Divisibility Rules for 21:
A number is divisible by 21 if it is divisible by 3 and by 7.
Example: -check 1365 .it is divisible by 21 or not.
· 1365 is divisible by 3 as its sum of digits =1+3+6+5=15(that is divisible by 3)
· 1365 is also divisible by 7.
· According to the rules of divisibility of 7.
· Subtract two times of unit digit from the rest of the numbers.
· Two times of unit digit is =5*2=10.
· Rest of the number =136.
· Subtract 136-10=126.which is divisible by 7.
Hence 1365 is divisible by 21.
Divisibility Rules for 22:
A Number is divisible by 22 if it is divisible by 2 and by 11.
Example: -Test 264 is divisible by 22 or not.
- · 264 is divisible by 2 as its unit digit is 4.
- · 264 is also divisible by 11 as its difference of sum of odd places digits and sum of even places digits is 0.
- · I.e. 2+4=6(sum of odd places digits).
- · And 6 is at even place.
- · Difference=6-6=0.
Hence 264 is divisible by 22.
Divisibility Rules for 23:
Add 7 times of the unit digit to the rest of the number of a given number and if the result is divisible by 23 then the given number is divisible by 23.
Example: – Check 276 is divisible by 23 or not?
· 7 times of the unit digit is 7*6=42.
· Add 42 to the rest of the number. 42+27=69.
· 69 is divisible by 23.So, the given number 276 is divisible by 23.
Divisibility Rules for 24:
A number is divisible by 24 if it is divisible by 3 and by 8.
