Which of the following numbers is NOT divisible by 16?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 16826.

The divisibility rule of 16: Any number that has 4 or greater than 4 digits is divisible by 16 if and only if the last 4 digits of the number are divisible by 16.

Option 1 = 16826

Last 4 digits = 826/4 = 206.5

Option 2 = 17776

Last 4 digits = 776/4 = 194

Option 3 = 5168

Last 4 digits = 168/4 = 42

Option 4 = 18016

Last 4 digits = 8016/4 = 2004

Hence, only 16826 is not divisible by 16
