X is divisible by Y if there is an integer Z such that X = Y*Z that is, Y will go into X without remainder.
Some numbers divide evenly. 12 divided by 3 equals 4. Some do not divide evenly and produce what is called a remainder. 5 goes into 12 twice, with two left over, so we say 12 divided by 5 equals 2, remainder 2.
