Show HN: Grand Unified Divisibility Rule: One divisibility rule for all numbers
- coolgeek 5y agoI'm not sure if there's a language issue here, or if I'm misinterpreting something, or something else > For instance, the divisibility rule of 6 is very similar to the divisibility rule of 45732360346. What does this mean? Are you talking about which numbers factor into these numbers, or which numbers have these numbers as a factor? The latter meaning is what I've always understood the "divisibility rule" of a number to mean. But it seems like you might be using the term in the first sense.
- lemiorhan 5y agoAfter your question I now understand that It was not a good example though. Assuming two numbers are prime numbers. Since the ones place digit is the same for X and 4573236034X, (that is X for both numbers) the divisibility rule formula and approach for both numbers are the same. I will update my description accordingly. Thanks.
- coolgeek 5y agoI haven't finished the article yet. But you've stumbled across something in number theory that I wasn't aware of. (Not that my level of awareness should be anybody's gauge)
