All numbers are not divisible by 3. In order to test if a number is a prime, you first test to see if it ends in a 2, 4, 6, 8, or 0. In that case it is divisible by 2 and not a prime. The next number you use for your test is 3. More odd numbers are divisible by 3 than by any other odd number but it is only the second number used for the test. You continue testing until you reach the square root of the number. If the number is only divisible by itself and one, it is prime. 3 is only the second test number in the division test for primes.

Yes; all numbers that are divisible by 9 are divisible by 3.
All numbers divisible by 3 are NOT divisible by 9. As an example, 6, which is divisible by 3, is not divisible by 9. However, all numbers divisible by 9 are also divisible by 3 because 9 is divisible by 3.
Yes it is true. If you add up the sum of all of the numbers in 34215 like this: 3+4+2+1+5, they equal to 15. 15 is a number that is divisible by 3. This strategy works for all numbers.
All numbers divisible by 9 are divisible by 3; since 9 = 3 x 3 all multiples of 9 are also multiples of 3. However, all numbers divisible by 3 are not divisible by 9, eg 6 = 2 x 3 but 6 is not divisible by 9 (since 6 is not a multiple of 9) - it only takes one counter example to disprove a theory.
