Division by 0 is undefined. Remember!
Additional Example 1A: Checking Divisibility Tell whether 462 is divisible by 2, 3, 4, and Not divisible So 462 is divisible by 2 and 3. The last digit, 2, is even. The sum of the digits is = is divisible by 3. The last two digits form the number is not divisible by 4. Divisible Not divisible The last digit is 2.
Additional Example 1B: Checking Divisibility Tell whether 540 is divisible by 6, 9, and So 540 is divisible by 6, 9, and 10. The number is divisible by both 2 and 3. The sum of the digits is = 9. 9 is divisible by 9. The last digit is 0. Divisible
Composite numbers a number that has more than two factors. Ex: 6 is divisible by 6 and 1 and also by 3 and 2. Its factors are 6, 1, 3 & 2 A prime number a number that has exactly two factors, itself and 1. Ex: 11 is a prime number because it is divisible by only 1 and 11. The numbers 0 and 1 are neither prime nor composite.
