Answer:

2: no

3: no

4: no

5: yes

6: no

8: no

9: no

10: no

11: yes

Explanation:

there are some simple divisibility rules that we can utilize here:

a number is divisible by __ if...

2: ends in [last digit] 0, 2, 4, 6, 8

so 275 is not divisible by 2

3: sum of digits is 3

2 + 7 + 5 = 14 [14 is not divisible by 3]

so 275 is not divisible by 3

4: last two digits are divisible by 4

75 is not divisible by 4

so 275 is not divisible by 4

5: last digit is 0 or 5

so 275 is divisible by 5

6: number is divisible by both 2 and 3

we know that 175 is not divisible by 2 or 3, so 275 is not divisble by 6

8: last three digits are divisible by 8

>> we also know that any number that 8 goes into, 4 also goes into [not always the other way around], meaning that because 175 is not divisible by 4, it must not be divisible by 8

so, 275 is not divisible by 8

9: sum of digits is divisible by 9

>> we also know that 9 only can go into numbers that 3 can go into, so because 175 is not divisible by 3, it must not be divisible by 9

so, 275 is not divisible by 9

10: last digit is 0

so, 275 is not divisible by 10

11 is a bit complicated:

sum of digit in odd places and sum of digit in even places has a difference is divisible by 11 [or is 0]

2 7 5

odd places: 2, 5 (2 + 5 = 7)

even places: 7 (7 = 7)

difference between 7 and 7 is 0 (7-7 = 0),

so, 275 is divisible by 11

hope this helps!! :)
