216 is divisible by 8

So, 9216 is divisible by 8

 

2104

Last 3 digits = 104

Divisibility by 8 - Part 2

Since 104 is divisible by 8

So 2104 is divisible by 8

 

2000

Last 3 digits = 000

          = 0

And 0 is divisible by any number

∴ 0 is divisible by 8   (as 0/8 = 0 Remainder is 0)

Thus, 2000 is divisible by 8

 

1416

Last 3 digits = 416

Divisibility by 8 - Part 3

Since 416 is divisible by 8

∴ 1416 is divisible by 8
