JAKE'S TOP TIP : DIVIDING

Because I find Dividing really difficult I've learnt a couple of top tips to help me. How can you spot if a number can be divided by:

two? - if it's even. (2,4,6,8·. )
ten? - if it ends in zero (10,20,30,40·.)
five? - if it ends in five or zero (5,10,15,20·.)
four?- if you halve the number and the answer is even (4, 8, 12, 16· `
three? - if you add the digits of the number together and the answer is divisible by three (111 : 1+1+1 = 3)
