Given Number: 5,168
Test a Number for Divisibility by Nine (9):
• A Number is divisible by 9 if the Sum of the Digits in the Number is divisible by 9
Sum of the Digits in 5,168: 5+1+6+8 = 20
20 is not divisible by 9
Therefore, 5,168 is NOT divisible by 9
Note: Since 5,168 is not divisible by 9, it follows that 5,168 is also not divisible by any multiple of 9 (18, 27, 36, …)
