    If the hundreds digit is odd, the number obtained by the last two digits must be 4 times an odd number. 352: 52 = 4 x 13. Add the last digit to twice the rest. The result must be divisible by 8. 56: (5 × 2) + 6 = 16. The last three digits are divisible by 8. [2][3] 34,152: Examine divisibility of just 152: 19 × 8.
