Hi Rita,

If you haven't already, check out Ask Dr. Math, the Forum's
ask-an-expert service for math students and their teachers. This
sister service of Teacher2Teacher offers a searchable archive of
questions and answers, plus the Frequently Asked Question

Divisibility rules: How can you tell whether a number is divisible by
another number (leaving no remainder) without actually doing the
division? Why do 'divisibility rules' work?
