If the last two digits are divisible by 4.
This is equivalent to:
Last digit = 0, 4, 8 and the digit before (in tens place) is even
or
Last digit = 2 or 6 and the digit before (in tens place) is odd.

A divisibility rule is a statement of procedures to determine divisibility. For example:"A number is divisible by 2 if it ends with 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8".It does not make any sense to divide such a sentence by 2 or 895 or any other number!
If the number is even, it's divisible by 2.
The number must be divisible by 2 and by 7.
There is no divisibility rule for 13 because it is a prime number. If you are thinking: why is there a divsibility rule for 2 and 3 then. Well, i don't know so go look it up on google.
A number is divisible by 12 if it is divisible by 3 AND it is divisible by 4. Rule 1a (Divisibility by 3): Add up all the digits of the number. Is this number divisible by 3? Rule 1b (Divisibility by 4): Is the number formed by the last two digits of the original number (the number left after deleting the hundreds, thousands, millions etc) divisible by 4? If the answer to 1a is NO, then the number is not divisible by 3 and so not divisible by 12. In this case, obviously, rule 1b is irrelevant. If the answer to 1b is NO, then the number is not divisible by 4 and so not divisible by 12. If the answer to both 1a and 1b is YES, then the number is divisible by 12.
