Which of the following numbers is not divisible by 6.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 8,00,552.

The divisibility rule of 6 states that if a number is divisible by 6 then it is also divisible by 2 and 3.

Option 1:

1 + 9 + 7 + 2 + 3 + 2 = 24 (divisible by 2 and 3)

Option 2:

9 + 7 + 2 + 1 + 3 + 2 = 24 (divisible by 2 and 3)

Option 3:

8 + 0 + 0 + 5 + 5 + 2 = 20 (divisible by 2 but not by 3)

Hence, 8,00,552 is not divisible by 6.
