Which of the following numbers is divisible by 3?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 7865001

Divisibility Test of 3 = Sum of all digits of a number to be divisible by 3

Sum of digits of 7865001 = 7 + 8 + 6 + 5 + 0 + 0 + 1 = 27

So, 27 is divisible by 3.

Sum of digits of 7803572 = 7 + 8 + 0 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 2 = 32

So, 32 is not divisible by 3.

Sum of digits of 7803541 = 7 + 8 + 0 + 3 + 5 + 4 + 1 = 28

So, 28 is not divisible by 3.

Sum of digits of 7803593 = 7 + 8 + 0 + 3 + 5 + 9 + 3 = 35

So, 35 is not divisible by 3.
