Demystifying - Multiples and divisibility tests

Drills

The multiples of a number, and the tests for divisibility by 2, 3, 4, 5 and 9.

Author note — to cover

Multiples and common multiples, and the divisibility tests for 2, 3, 4, 5, 9 and 10 applied to three- and four-digit numbers. LCM method lives on lcm-from-prime-factors; primality testing by trial division lives on primes-and-primality. Both tiers. (N4)
