Full solution

Q. Without dividing, determine if 7777,528528 is divisible by 66 and explain how you know.\newline77,528 77,528 \square divisible by 66
  1. Check Divisibility by 22: To determine if a number is divisible by 66, it must be divisible by both 22 and 33.\newlineFirst, we check if the number is divisible by 22. A number is divisible by 22 if its last digit is even (0,2,4,6,0, 2, 4, 6, or 88).\newlineThe last digit of 77,52877,528 is 88, which is even.\newlineTherefore, 77,52877,528 is divisible by 22.
  2. Check Divisibility by 33: Next, we check if the number is divisible by 33. A number is divisible by 33 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 33.\newlineThe sum of the digits of 77,52877,528 is 7+7+5+2+8=297 + 7 + 5 + 2 + 8 = 29.
  3. Sum of Digits: The sum 2929 is not divisible by 33 because 33 does not divide evenly into 2929. Therefore, 77,52877,528 is not divisible by 33.
  4. Final Divisibility Conclusion: Since 77,52877,528 is divisible by 22 but not by 33, it is not divisible by 66.
