Number Theory, Modular Arithmetic / Remainder Arithmetic, Divisibility Rules, Divisibility Rules by 2, 4, and 8

This topic focuses on specific divisibility rules: by 2 (if the last digit is even), by 4 (if the number formed by the last two digits is divisible by 4), and by 8 (if the number formed by the last three digits is divisible by 8). Questions involve applying these specific tests.

• Question

  Given a three-digit prime number with all its digits distinct. It is known that its last digit is equal to the sum of the other two digits. Find all the possibilities for the last digit of this number.

• Question

  All the even numbers from `12` to `34` are written on the board without spaces. As a result, the following number was obtained:

  `121416182022242628303234`

  Is this number divisible by `24`?

• Question

  The number `100` is written on the board. Find a digit that satisfies the following condition:

  If we add it to the notation of the number written on the board once to the left and once to the right, we get a number that is divisible by `12`.

• Question

  A two-digit number is written on the board. Avi claims that the units digit of the number is twice the tens digit. Beni claims that the number is divisible by `9`. Gal claims that the number is divisible by `4`. Dani claims that the number is divisible by `27`. It is known that one of them is wrong, and the rest are correct. What number is written on the board?
