Not all even numbers are divisible by 6. These numbers are not evenly divisible by 6: Any number smaller than 6. Any number not divisible by 3. If a number is divisible by both 2 and 3, it is divisible by 6.
To determine if 42 is divisible by 3, you can add up the digits of 42 (4 + 2 = 6) and check if the sum is divisible by 3. Since 6 is divisible by 3, then 42 is also divisible by 3. This is based on the rule that a number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3.
It is divisible by 2, 3, 4, 6 and 9.
All multiples of 6 Numbers are evenly divisible by 6 if they are evenly divisible by both 2 AND 3. Even numbers are always evenly divisible by 2. Numbers are evenly divisible by 3 if the sum of all the individual digits is evenly divisible by 3. For example, the sum of the digits for the number 3627 is 18, which is evenly divisible by 3 but 3627 is an odd number so the number 3627 is not evenly divisible by 6
To determine if 610 is divisible by both 6 and 10, we need to check if it is divisible by both 6 and 10 individually. For 6, we check if 610 is divisible by 2 and 3. Since 610 is even but not divisible by 3, it is not divisible by 6. For 10, we check if 610 ends in 0, which it does not. Therefore, 610 is not divisible by 10 either.
