Dear Student,

Please find below the solution to the asked query:

1 ) We know :

Divisibility  rule for ' 8 ' :The last three digits are divisible by 8.then given number also divisible by 8 .

a ) 1606 , Last digit three digits ' 606 ' and that is not divisible by ' 8 ' so ' 1606 ' is not divisible by 8 .

b ) 2735 , Last digit three digits ' 375 ' and that is not divisible by ' 8 ' so ' 2735 ' is not divisible by 8 .

c ) 81426 , Last digit three digits ' 426 ' and that is not divisible by ' 8 ' so ' 81426 ' is not divisible by 8 .

d ) 34408 , Last digit three digits ' 408 ' and that is divisible by ' 8 ' so ' 34408 ' is divisible by 8 .

e ) 1968 , Last digit three digits ' 968 ' and that is divisible by ' 8 ' so ' 81426 ' is divisible by 8 .

f ) 48516 , Last digit three digits '516 ' and that is not divisible by ' 8 ' so ' 48516 ' is not divisible by 8 .

see the last three digits and if it is divisible by 8 then the whole number is divisible by 8.
for example-take 1606 the last three digits are 606.it is not divisible by 8 hence the whole number is not divisible by 8
  • 0
BY 11
17270
SUM OF ODD PLACES
SUM OF EVEN PLACES
1+2+0=3
7+7=14
14-3=11
THEREFORE,17270 IS DIVISIBLE BY 11
  • -1
BY 11
17207
SUM OF ODD PLACES
SUM OF EVEN PLACES
1+2+7=10
7+0=7
10-7=3
THEREFORE,17207 IS NOT DIVISIBLE BY 11.
