It means, it is a number which can be divided evenly into the larger number, an even number of times. Example 2 divides into 6 , 3 times evenly, a nice whole number like 3 which is what we are looking for. Not something like 3 1/8 or 3 1/2 times this over hanging fraction like what was just stated 3.125 or 3.250 would not be a whole nice number. But with some left over portion of a number we don't desire. Its the .125 or .250 part that bug us.

What does divisible mean in relation to math?
An integer X is said to be divisible by another integer Y (not = 0) if Y divides X evenly: a whole number of times without remainder. Another way of putting it is that X = nY where n is an integer. The concept does not make any sense for fractional numbers since any fraction is divisible by every non-zero fraction.

If a number is divisible by 2 then its divisible by 4?
This statement is not always true. While it is true that if a number is divisible by 4, it is also divisible by 2, the reverse is not necessarily true. For example, the number 6 is divisible by 2 but not by 4. In general, being divisible by 2 is a necessary but not a sufficient condition for being divisible by 4.

What does divisible by mean?
If 'A' is 'divisible by 'B', it means that: -- If 'B' is repeatedly subtracted from 'A', then the last one fits exactly, without anything left over -- 'A' was made by piling up some whole number of 'B's, with no extras -- 'B' goes into 'A' evenly --'A'/'B'= some whole number
When two whole numbers are subtracted does it affect the difference?
When you subtract one number from another, the result is called the difference. What does your question mean? If by "when two whole numbers are subtracted" you mean that you subtract one whole number from the minuend, and then you subtract another whole number from the difference, then the answer you get is another difference. In effect, you have one minuend and two subtrahends.
