Given Number: 14
Test a Number for Divisibility by Three (3):
• A Number is divisible by 3 if the Sum of the Digits in the Number is divisible by 3
Sum of the Digits in 14: 1+4 = 5
5 is not divisible by 3
Therefore, 14 is NOT divisible by 3
Note: Since 14 is not divisible by 3, it follows that 14 is also not divisible by any multiple of 3 (6, 9, 12, …)
