Question:12.Without actual division show that 52563744 is divisible by 24.
Answer
Sol.24=3x8, where 3 and 8 are co-prime. The sum of the digits in given number is 36,which is divisible by 3 So the given number is divisible by 3. The number formed by the last 3-digits of the given number is 744,which is divisible by 8. So,the given number is divisible by 8. Thus,the given number is divisible by both 3 and 8,where 3 and 8 are co-prime. So,it is divisible by 3x8,i.e.24. FORMULAE:(i)`(a^2+b^2)`=`a^2+b^2+2ab` (ii) `(a-b)^2`=`a^2+b^2-2ab` (iii) `(a+b)^2-(a-b)^2`=4ab (iv) `(a+b)^2+(a-b)^2`=`2(a^2+b^2)` (v) `(a^2-b^2)`= (a+b)(a-b) (vi) `(a^3+b^3)`= (a+b)`(a^2-ab+b^2)` (vii) `(a^3-b^3)` = `(a-b) (a^2+ab+b^2)` (viii) a.(b+c)=ab+ac θ a.(b-c)=ab-ac (Distributive Laws)
