  2. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    Another digit pair method of divisibility by 7. Method. This is a non-recursive method to find the remainder left by a number on dividing by 7: Separate the number into digit pairs starting from the ones place. Prepend the number with 0 to complete the final pair if required. Calculate the remainders left by each digit pair on dividing by 7.

  3. Digit sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digit_sum

    Digit sums and digital roots can be used for quick divisibility tests: a natural number is divisible by 3 or 9 if and only if its digit sum (or digital root) is divisible by 3 or 9, respectively. For divisibility by 9, this test is called the rule of nines and is the basis of the casting out nines technique for checking calculations.

  4. Symbolab - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

    Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011.

  5. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

    Modern calculators and computers compute division either by methods similar to long division, or by faster methods; see Division algorithm. In modular arithmetic (modulo a prime number) and for real numbers, nonzero numbers have a multiplicative inverse. In these cases, a division by x may be computed as the product by the multiplicative ...

  6. Least common multiple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least_common_multiple

    The positive integers may be partially ordered by divisibility: if a divides b (that is, if b is an integer multiple of a) write a ≤ b (or equivalently, b ≥ a). (Note that the usual magnitude-based definition of ≤ is not used here.) Under this ordering, the positive integers become a lattice, with meet given by the gcd and join given by ...

  7. Division algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_algorithm

    Long division is the standard algorithm used for pen-and-paper division of multi-digit numbers expressed in decimal notation. It shifts gradually from the left to the right end of the dividend, subtracting the largest possible multiple of the divisor (at the digit level) at each stage; the multiples then become the digits of the quotient, and the final difference is then the remainder.

  8. Greatest common divisor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greatest_common_divisor

    The GCD of a and b is their greatest positive common divisor in the preorder relation of divisibility. This means that the common divisors of a and b are exactly the divisors of their GCD. This is commonly proved by using either Euclid's lemma, the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, or the Euclidean algorithm. This is the meaning of "greatest ...

  9. Trial division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trial_division

    Trial division is the most laborious but easiest to understand of the integer factorization algorithms. The essential idea behind trial division tests to see if an integer n, the integer to be factored, can be divided by each number in turn that is less than the square root of n.
