Divisibility of a b c ( a + b + c ) abc-(a+b+c)

If n n is a number ( 100 < n < 1000 ; n N ) (100<n<1000; n\in\mathbb N) and d d be the difference between the summation of the digits and the number. Then, Is it true always that d 0 m o d ( 3 ) 0 m o d ( 9 ) d\equiv0\mod(3)\equiv0\mod(9) ?

We have [ 100 < n < 1000 ; n N ] [100<n<1000; n\in\mathbb N] n n is three digit which can be expressed as n = 100 x + 10 y + z n=100x+10y+z were 0 ( x , y , z ) < 10 0≤(x,y,z)<10 . difference (d) = n ( x + y + z ) = ( 100 x + 10 y + z ) ( x + y + z ) = 99 x + 9 y ; d 3 ( 33 x + 3 y ) 9 ( 11 x + y ) \small\begin{aligned}\text{difference (d)}=n-(x+y+z)=(100x+10y+z)-(x+y+z)=99x+9y; d\Rightarrow 3(33x+3y)\Rightarrow 9(11x+y)\end{aligned} Therefore, d 0 m o d ( 3 ) 0 m o d ( 9 ) d\equiv0\mod(3)\equiv0\mod(9) is always true .
