Suitable for Year groups: Year 7, Year 8
GCSE Tier: Foundation
Targeting grades: 1-3
Prerequisite knowledge: Multiplication and division facts. Halving numbers. Finding the sum of single digits.
Learning Objective: Select and use appropriate calculation strategies to solve increasingly complex problems.

Divisibility Rules (A): 2, 3, 4, 5, 8 & 10 WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

This worksheet introduces foundational divisibility rules for the numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, and 10.

In Section A, students identify which numbers are divisible by 2, 5 and 10, alongside considering the divisibility rules for each of these factors.

Section B asks learners to look for a pattern when finding the sum of the digits of known multiples of three. They will then use their findings to identify numbers which are divisible by 3.

In Section C, pupils will discover how to check whether 4 or 8 is a factor of numbers.

Lastly, students will write up the divisibility conditions for 3, 4 and 8.

All worksheets are created by the team of experienced teachers at Cazoom Maths.
