Q2.
(i) Write a 3-digit number as
If the number is divisible by 11, then what can you say about
Is it necessary that should be divisible by 11?
let the number abc be 132
Here a = 1, b = 3 and c = 2
132= 100*1 + 10*3 + 2 = 99 + 11*3 + (1 - 3 + 2)
= 11(9*1+3) + (1 - 3 + 2 )
if number is divisible by 11 then (a - b + c ) must be divisible by 11.
as in above case of number 132 the a - b + c = 1 -3 + 2 = 0 whichis divisible by 11.
Hence we conclude ( a - b + c ) should be divisible by 11 if abc is divisible by 11.
