What is the divisibility rule of 6?

Answer 1

The number must be even and follow the divisibility rule of 3.

The number must be even and when you add up the digits the total should be divisible by 3. For example: #336# #3+3+6=12# #12# is divisible by 3. #336# is also divisible by #2#.

The divisibility rule of 6 states that a number is divisible by 6 if it is divisible by both 2 and 3. In other words, if a number can be evenly divided by 2 (i.e., it is an even number) and the sum of its digits is divisible by 3, then it is also divisible by 6.
