A number is divisible by another number when the after division by that number is 0?

the answer would be 10 * * * * * hi hi hi hi hi hi hi i am from india and will atempt to scam you I suspect that this is a "fill in the blank" question and the blank should appear between "the" and "after" and the word in that blank should be "remainder". ****** My 5th grader got the same question. You are right it is a fill in question! The question should read: A number is divisible by another number when the __________________ after division by that number is 0. It seems to make more sense if they wrote it as follows: A number is divisible by another number if after dividing the remainder is zero.
