Is 54 divisible by:

2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11

Divisibililty Check for 2

Last digit ends in 0,2,4,6,8

The last digit of 54 is 4

Since 4 is equal to 0,2,4,6,8:
then 54 is divisible by 2

Divisibililty Check for 3

Sum of the digits is divisible by 3

The sum of the digits for 54 is 5 + 4 = 9

Since 9 is divisible by 3:
Then 54 is divisible by 3

Divisibililty Check for 4

Take the last two digits
Are they divisible by 4?

The last 2 digits of 54 are 54

Since 54 is not divisible by 4:
Then 54 is not divisible by 4

Divisibililty Check for 5

Number ends with a 0 or 5

The last digit of 54 is 4

Since 4 is not equal to 0 or 5:
Then 54 is not divisible by 5

Divisibililty Check for 6

Divisible by both 2 and 3

Since 54 is divisible by 2 and 3:
Then 54 is divisible by 6

Divisibililty Check for 7

Multiply each respective digit by 1,3,2,6,4,5
Work backwards
Repeat as necessary

4(1) + 5(3) = 20

Since 20 is not divisible by 7:
Then 54 is not divisible by 7

Divisibililty Check for 8

Take the last three digits
Are they divisible by 8

The last 2 digits of 54 are 54

Since 54 is not divisible by 8:
Then 54 is not divisible by 8

Divisibililty Check for 9

Sum of digits divisible by 9

The sum of the digits for 54 is 5 + 4 = 9

Since 9 is divisible by 9:
Then 54 is divisible by 9

Divisibililty Check for 10

Ends with a 0

The last digit of 54 is 4

Since 4 is not equal to 0:
Then 54 is not divisible by 10

Divisibililty Check for 11

Σ odd digits - Σ even digits = 0
or 54 is a multiple of 11

Sum the odd digits:

54

5

Odd Sum = 5

Sum the even digits:

54

4

Even Sum = 4

Take the difference:

Δ = Odd Sum - Even Sum

Δ = 5 - 4

Δ = 1

Divisibility Check:

Because Δ / 11 = 4.9090909090909 and Δ ≠ 0:
Then 54 is NOT divisible by 11
