You can tell by adding all the digits in 5427 together, if the result is over 9, add the digits in that result repeat that until you get a single digit result. If that is 9, the original number is divisible by 9. So:

5+4+2+7 = 18

1+8 = 9

So 5427 is divisible by 9
All numbers divisible by 9 add up to 9

5 + 4 + 2 + 7 = 9 + 9 = 18 = 1 + 8 = 9
