Yes. Fun fact: For natural numbers m , n , it is true that n is divisible by 2 m if the last m digits of n is divisible by 2 m . Can you prove it?
My proof for the challenge master's statement.

E . D .
Easier proof of the challenge: take the number minus the last n digits. It has n trailing zeroes, and is divisible by 10^n, and thus is divisible by 2^n. Thus, the divisibility of the original number by 2^n depends on the divisibility of the last n digits by 2^n.
The solution above and the comments below explain exactly how to prove that this number is divisible by four. I merely observed that it ends in 12, which means that dividing by two gives a number that ends either in 56 or 06 (in this specific case actually 06), and is therefore itself divisible by two, meaning that the original number is divisible by four.
Why 15 is divisible by 5?
Then why is 100 divisible by 4?

0 divided by any number is still 0. 0 is a whole number.
So 14 divisible by 4?

Last 2 digits are 14 and 14 is not divisible by four,so yeah.
Yes, you just need to look at the last 2 digits. Multiples of 100 are always divisible by 4. In this case the number can be broken up into 931232 X 100 + 12 = 4(931232 X 25 + 3) Therefore 4 is a factor.
divisibility rule for 4 = the last two digits must be divisible by 4 AND divisibility rule for 8 = the last three digits must be divisible by 8 .....................I don't know for 6 and 7 if you do , kindly inform me .
nubmer is divisible by 6 if it's both divisible by 2 and by 3 so in order to be divisible by 6 sum of all digits in given nubmer must be a multiple of 3 and last digit must be even
Look at the last 2 digits. If they are divisible by 4, the the number is divisible by 4
To find the multiplier of 4, check the last 2 digits. If the last 2 digits are 4's multiplier, That number must be a 4's multiplier. If it is not 4's multiplier, it is not 4's multiplier. So 93123212's last 2 digits are 12, it is the 4's multiplier. So 93123212 is 4's multiplier.
Nope. Your comment is incorrect.
We check the last two digits,if the last two digit divisible by 4 then Y e s
A number is divisible by 4 if number's last two digits are divisible by 4. This number has last two digits12, and this is divisible by 4. So the whole number is divisible by 4.
if the last two digits are divisible by 4 then the whole number is divisible by 4.
The question doesn't ask if it is evenly divisible by 4, which it is.
It doesn't specify there can't be a remainder
As any number finishing by 00 is divisible by 100, therefore 4, you just have to check the last 2 digits. So here, 12 is divisible by 4, so the whole number is.
Only the last two numbers need to be divisible. The numbers before represent x100, x1000, x10.000 etc. These are already divisible by 4.
A/C to divisibility of 4, if the last two digit of any number can be divided by 4, then the whole number is divisible by 4.
93123212=93123200+12. 4|12 and 4|93123200, hence 4|93123212
Can you use more words instead of symbols?
if last two digits of a number are divisible by 4, then it is divisible by 4.
test of divisibility - no. formed by last two digits should be divisible by 4. the no. 93123212 have the last two digits 12 ,which is divisible by 4. Therefore,93123212 is divisible by 4.
The answer lies in the divisibility test of 4.
The test says, when the last two digits (units and tens place) are divisible by 4, the complete number is divisible by 4.
Since, the last 2 digits of 93123212 is 12, which divisible by 4.
Therefore the complete number is divisible by 4....Hence the answer is Yes.
Yes correct. From a quick glance, can you determine whether the same number is divisible by 6?
Here the last two digits are 12 whice is divisible by 4(12/4=3). that's why the numbe is divisible by 4.
You're right! Good job! Can you prove that the same number is not divisible by 8?
