Divisibility Unlocked: From 1–30 Rules to Prime Inverses
About this episode
Join us as we unravel divisibility rules—from the familiar tricks for 11 and 7 to methods that extend beyond 30. We’ll connect these patterns to modular arithmetic, explain what an inverse modulo is, and show how primes can have fast divisibility tests derived from the inverse of 10. Plus, practical STEM applications, real-world uses, and ideas you can bring into the classroom.
