  2. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    It is divisible by 2 and by 3. [6] 1,458: 1 + 4 + 5 + 8 = 18, so it is divisible by 3 and the last digit is even, hence the number is divisible by 6. Sum the ones digit, 4 times the 10s digit, 4 times the 100s digit, 4 times the 1000s digit, etc. If the result is divisible by 6, so is the original number.

  3. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    Cuisenaire rods: 5 (yellow) cannot be evenly divided in 2 (red) by any 2 rods of the same color/length, while 6 (dark green) can be evenly divided in 2 by 3 (lime green). In mathematics, parity is the property of an integer of whether it is even or odd. An integer is even if it is divisible by 2, and odd if it is not. [1]

  4. Infinite divisibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_divisibility

    Every infinitely divisible probability distribution corresponds in a natural way to a Lévy process, i.e., a stochastic process { X t : t ≥ 0 } with stationary independent increments (stationary means that for s < t, the probability distribution of X t − X s depends only on t − s; independent increments means that that difference is ...

  5. Divisor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisor

    For example, there are six divisors of 4; they are 1, 2, 4, −1, −2, and −4, but only the positive ones (1, 2, and 4) would usually be mentioned. 1 and −1 divide (are divisors of) every integer. Every integer (and its negation) is a divisor of itself. Integers divisible by 2 are called even, and integers not divisible by 2 are called odd.

  6. Division by zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_by_zero

    The meaning of the expression should be the solution x of the equation =. But in the ring Z /6 Z , 2 is a zero divisor . This equation has two distinct solutions, x = 1 and x = 4 , so the expression 2 2 {\textstyle {\frac {2}{2}}} is undefined .

  7. Necessity and sufficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Necessity_and_sufficiency

    A number's being divisible by 4 is sufficient (but not necessary) for it to be even, but being divisible by 2 is both sufficient and necessary for it to be even. Example 3 An occurrence of thunder is a sufficient condition for the occurrence of lightning in the sense that hearing thunder, and unambiguously recognizing it as such, justifies ...

  8. Pythagorean triple - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagorean_triple

    Exactly one of a, b is divisible by 2 (is even), and the hypotenuse c is always odd. [13] Exactly one of a, b is divisible by 3, but never c. [14] [8]: 23–25 Exactly one of a, b is divisible by 4, [8] but never c (because c is never even). Exactly one of a, b, c is divisible by 5. [8] The largest number that always divides abc is 60. [15]

  9. Parity of zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_of_zero

    There is a sense in which some multiples of 2 are "more even" than others. Multiples of 4 are called doubly even, since they can be divided by 2 twice. Not only is zero divisible by 4, zero has the unique property of being divisible by every power of 2, so it surpasses all other numbers in "evenness". [1]
