Is 462 divisible by 6

Answer 1

Yes.

To check for divisibility by 6, check that the number passes the tests for divisibility by 2 and 3 (since 2 x 3 = 6), namely is the number even and when the digits are added together are they a multiple of 3.

For 462:

• it is even
• 4 + 6 + 2 = 12 which is divisible by 3 (3 x 4 = 12)

So it is divisible by 6.

462 / 6 = 77
