I'm not sure what would be a trick for the number 3. I will presume you would mean the way to tell if a number is a multiple of 3. A number is a multiple of 3 if the sum of its digits is also a multiple of 3. For example 585 is a multiple of 3 since' 5+8+5 = 18 which is a multiple of 3. The number 47 is not a multiple of 3 because 4+7 equals 11 and that is not a multiple of 3. There is a second digit that has a similar rule for multiplicity. That digit is 9, which just happens to equal 32 . In fact, since 18 is a multiple of 9, 585 must be a multiple of 9 also.
