Ex.: 365/5 = 730/10 = 73

Dividing by 25, 250, 2500, and etc.: Multiply by 4 and divide by 100, 1000, 10000, and etc.

Dividing by 125: Multiply by 8 and then divide by 1000

Ex.: 36125/125 = 289000/1000 = 289

It can be divided evenly by:

• 2 if the number ends in 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8
• 3 if the sum of the digits in the number is divisible by 3
• 4 if the number ends in 00 or a 2 digit number divisible by 4
