How do you devise a divisibility test?
you can't
Is 5890 divisible by 2 3 6 9 5 10?
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.

Which number has no test for divisibility?
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.
