You test by :=

All EVEN Numbers are divisible by '2'

All numbers ending in '5' or ''0' are divisible by '5'

All numbers whose digits add to '9' are divisible by '9'. e.g. 234 2+3+4 = 9

All numbers whose form is ' m(m+n)n ' e.g. 132 are divisible by '11'.

This leaves only '3' and '7' to test by actual division.

Divide the smaller number into the larger one. If the answer is an integer, it's a multiple.
