  2. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    Pohlman–Mass method of divisibility by 7 The Pohlman–Mass method provides a quick solution that can determine if most integers are divisible by seven in three steps or less. This method could be useful in a mathematics competition such as MATHCOUNTS, where time is a factor to determine the solution without a calculator in the Sprint Round.

  3. Digital root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_root

    The next number in the sequence (the smallest number of additive persistence 5) is 2 × 10 2×(10 22 − 1)/9 − 1 (that is, 1 followed by 2 222 222 222 222 222 222 222 nines). For any fixed base, the sum of the digits of a number is proportional to its logarithm ; therefore, the additive persistence is proportional to the iterated logarithm .

  4. 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 ...

    Add the rule for the divisibility rule for 7. the difference between twice the unit digit of the given number and the remaining part of the given number should be a multiple of 7 or it should be equal to 0. Example: 798 (8x2=16) 79-16=63 63/7=9 ️ 2001:4456:C7E:1400:2405:E396:8C79:2D65 10:13, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

  6. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    In abstract algebra, given a magma with binary operation ∗ (which could nominally be termed multiplication), left division of b by a (written a \ b) is typically defined as the solution x to the equation a ∗ x = b, if this exists and is unique. Similarly, right division of b by a (written b / a) is the solution y to the equation y ∗ a = b ...

    The divisors of 10 illustrated with Cuisenaire rods: 1, 2, 5, and 10 In mathematics , a divisor of an integer n , {\displaystyle n,} also called a factor of n , {\displaystyle n,} is an integer m {\displaystyle m} that may be multiplied by some integer to produce n . {\displaystyle n.} [ 1 ] In this case, one also says that n {\displaystyle n ...

  8. Divisibility (ring theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_(ring_theory)

    Let R be a ring, [a] and let a and b be elements of R.If there exists an element x in R with ax = b, one says that a is a left divisor of b and that b is a right multiple of a. [1] ...

  9. 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.
