A number is divisible by 6 if the number is divisible by 2 AND 3.
you can't
No. If it is not divisible by 2 it cannot be divisible by 8, so don'y bother.

Every number has a test for divisibility. The issue is that the tests get more complicated as the divisor increases. For primes up to 50, see either of the attached links.
To test divisibility for 20, you need to use the tests for divisibility by 4 and 5.The test for divisibility by 4 is that the last 2 digits of the number, given as a 2-digit number, are divisible by 4.Example for 4:We are testing the number 11042.42/4 = 10.5 which is not a whole number. Therefore 11042 is not divisible by 4.The test for divisibility by 5 is that the last digit of the number is either 5 or 0.
If the number is also divisible by 2 and 3
A number is divisible by 6 if the number is divisible by 2 AND 3.

There are two ways of answering this.Check the number for divisibility by 2.Check the quotient for divisibility by 2.Check the quotient for divisibility by 2.Check the quotient for divisibility by 2.Check the quotient for divisibility by 2.Check the quotient for divisibility by 2.For large numbers, the check can be restricted to the number formed by the last six digits.
Test of divisibility by 2:If a number is even then the number can be evenly divided by 2.5890 is an even number so, it is divisible by 2.Test of divisibility by 3:A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of digits of the number is a multiple of 3.Sum of digits = 5+8+9+0 = 22, which is not a multiple of 3.So, 5890 is not divisible by 3.Test of divisibility by 6:In order to check if a number is divisible by 6, we have to check if it is divisible by both 2 and 3 because 6 = 2x3.As we have seen above that 5890 is not divisible by 3 so, 5890 fails to pass the divisibility test by 6.Test of divisibility by 9:If the sum of digits of a number is divisible by 9 then the number is divisible by 9.Sum of digits = 5+8+9+0 = 22, which is not a multiple of 9.So, 5890 is not divisible by 9.Test of divisibility by 5:If the last digit of a number is 0 or 5, then it is divisible by 5.It is clear that 5890 is divisible by 5.Test of divisibility by 10:If the last digit of a number is 0, then the number is divisible by 10.It is clear that 5890 is divisible by 10 as the last digit is 0.
Here is a very simple algorithm: Call your number "n". You might test divisibility by every number, starting at 2. If the first number by which a number is divisible is equal to "n", then it is a prime number. - Faster algorithms are possible; for example, you really only need to test divisibility by all numbers, up to the square root of your number "n".Here is a very simple algorithm: Call your number "n".

There is no easy rule for divisibility by 34.
The divisibility rule for 2 works because the base of our number system, 10, is divisible by 2.
