I: Consider the following numbers which are divisible by 7, using the test of divisibility by 7: 133, 273, 329, 595, 672.

(i) 133

In the number 133, double the last digit of the number 3 is 6. 13 – 6 = 7 [Now we need to subtract it from the rest of the remaining number]

Since 7 is divisible by 7.

Hence, 133 is also divisible by 7.


(ii) 273

In the number 273, double the last digit of the number 3 is 6. 27 – 6 = 21 [Now we need to subtract it from the rest of theremaining number]

Since 21 is divisible by 7.

Hence, 273 is also divisible by 7.



(iii) 329

In the number 329, double the last digit of the number 9 is 18. 32 – 18 = 14 [Now we need to subtract it from the rest of the remaining number]

Since 14 is divisible by 7.

Hence, 329 is also divisible by 7.



(iv) 595

In the number 595, double the last digit of the number 5 is 10. 59 – 10 = 49 [Now we need to subtract it from the rest of the remaining number]

Since 49 is divisible by 7.

Hence, 595 is also divisible by 7.



(v) 672

In the number 672, double the last digit of the number 2 is 4. 67 – 4 = 63 [Now we need to subtract it from the rest of the remaining number]

Since 63 is divisible by 7.

Hence, 672 is also divisible by 7.

II: Consider the following numbers which are not divisible by 7, using the rules of divisibility by 7: 167, 233, 297, 305,317.

(i) 167

In the number 167, double the last digit of the number 7 is 14. 16 – 14 = 2 [Now we need to subtract it from the rest of the remaining number]

Since 2 is not divisible by 7.

Hence, 167 is also not divisible by 7.



(ii) 233

In the number 233, double the last digit of the number 3 is 6. 23 – 6 = 17 [Now we need to subtract it from the rest of the remaining number]

Since 17 is not divisible by 7.

Hence, 233 is also not divisible by 7.



(iii)297

In the number 297, double the last digit of the number 7 is 14. 29 – 14 = 15 [Now we need to subtract it from the rest of the remaining number]

Since 15 is not divisible by 7.

Hence, 297 is also not divisible by 7.


(iv) 305

In the number 305, double the last digit of the number 5 is 10. 30 – 10 = 20 [Now we need to subtract it from the rest of the remaining number]

Since 20 is not divisible by 7.

Hence, 305 is also not divisible by 7.


(v) 317

In the number 317, double the last digit of the number 7 is 14. 31 – 14 = 17 [Now we need to subtract it from the rest of the remaining number]

Since 17 is not divisible by 7.

Hence, 317 is also not divisible by 7.
