Test for Divisibility by 27059

To determine if any number is divisible by 27059, apply this test:

  1. If your number ("X") has 7 digits or more, separate the last (smallest) 6 digits from the rest. This makes two smaller numbers, call them Left and Right (note: don't add in trailing zeros to L). If there are fewer than 7 digits, L = 0 and therefore R = X.
  2. Multiply L by 1183 and subtract this from R.
  3. Take that result and cross off its final digit (units). Take this new number and add 2706 times the digit you just crossed off. Call this final result "Y".
  4. Y will be much smaller than X, but we have preserved divisibility by 27059. That is, your original number is divisible by 27059 if (and only if) Y is. Now that it's much smaller, with basic knowledge of your 27059-times tables, it should be easy to visually see if Y is divisible by 27059. If the Y is still much larger than 27059, the above process can be repeated until it does reduce to within small multiples of 27059.

Easy!
