  2. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    We also have the rule that 10 x + y is divisible iff x + 4 y is divisible by 13. For example, to test the divisibility of 1761 by 13 we can reduce this to the divisibility of 461 by the first rule. Using the second rule, this reduces to the divisibility of 50, and doing that again yields 5. So, 1761 is not divisible by 13.

  3. 1001 (number) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1001_(number)

    Two properties of 1001 are the basis of a divisibility test for 7, 11 and 13. The method is along the same lines as the divisibility rule for 11 using the property 10 ≡ -1 (mod 11). The two properties of 1001 are 1001 = 7 × 11 × 13 in prime factors 10 3 ≡ -1 (mod 1001) The method simultaneously tests for divisibility by any of the factors ...

  4. Parity (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parity_(mathematics)

    The following laws can be verified using the properties of divisibility. They are a special case of rules in modular arithmetic, and are commonly used to check if an equality is likely to be correct by testing the parity of each side. As with ordinary arithmetic, multiplication and addition are commutative and associative in modulo 2 arithmetic ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transitive_relation

    [11] Since the reflexivization of any transitive relation is a preorder , the number of transitive relations an on n -element set is at most 2 n time more than the number of preorders, thus it is asymptotically 2 ( 1 / 4 + o ( 1 ) ) n 2 {\displaystyle 2^{(1/4+o(1))n^{2}}} by results of Kleitman and Rothschild.

  7. Proof by exhaustion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_by_exhaustion

    Proof by exhaustion, also known as proof by cases, proof by case analysis, complete induction or the brute force method, is a method of mathematical proof in which the statement to be proved is split into a finite number of cases or sets of equivalent cases, and where each type of case is checked to see if the proposition in question holds. [1]

  8. Rule of division (combinatorics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_division...

    In combinatorics, the rule of division is a counting principle. It states that there are n/d ways to do a task if it can be done using a procedure that can be carried out in n ways, and for each way w, exactly d of the n ways correspond to the way w. In a nutshell, the division rule is a common way to ignore "unimportant" differences when ...
