LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEETS IN MATHEMATICS

Grade 5
First Quarter
Week 1
I. Activity Title: Divisibility Rules
II. MELC: uses divisibility rules for 2, 5, and 10 to find the common factors of
Numbers (M5NS-Ib-58.1)
III. In this activity you will learn to:
a. classify numbers divisible by 2, 5, and 10
b. distinguish numbers that are divisible by 2, 5, and 10
c. work with speed and accuracy
IV. Introduction:

Hello kid! How’s your day? Did you have fun with your previous activity sheets? Here I
am again preparing other activities for you. So, get ready.

The divisibility rule is a shortcut for figuring out if a certain number is divisible by
2, 5, and 10 without having to actually solve the division problem.
OBSERVING THE LAST DIGIT
Rule of 2: A number is divisible by 2 if the number is even or if the last digit ends
with 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8. Examples: 48, 46, 38, 560, 456, 354, 152

Rule of 5: A number is divisible by 5 if the number ends with 5 or 0.

Examples: 460 125 385 39 380 8 390 357 835

Rule of 10: A number is divisible by 10 if the number ends with 0.

Examples: 560 380 9 000 90 310 828 000 7 000 000

V. Discussion and Examples:

Task 1:

1. Direction: Check the number/s that is/are exactly divisible by 2.

28 ___ 45 ____ 50 ___ 29 ___ 126 ___

2. Direction: Check the number/s that is/are exactly divisible by 5.

46 ___ 75 ___ 60 ___ 345 ___ 200 ___

3. Direction: Check the number/s that is/are exactly divisible by 10.

40 ___ 92 ___ 260 ____ 135 ____ 2 000 ____

Solution for Task 1:

A number is divisible by 2 if the number is even or if the last digit ends with 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8.
A number is divisible by 5 if the number ends with 5 or 0.
A number is divisible by 10 if the number ends with 0.

First, you need to identify the last number of a given digit. If it ends with 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 it is
divisible by 2. If the number ends with 0 or 5, it is divisible by 5 and if a two digit number ends
with 0, it is divisible by 10.

Answers: 1.) 28, 50, 126 2.) 75, 60, 345, 200 3.) 40, 260, 135, 2 000

Task 2: Directions: Write 2, 5, or 10 or any combination of the three numbers in the blank,
if the given number is exactly divisible by 2, 5, or 10.

__________ 1. 630

__________ 2. 32 724

__________ 3. 4 110

__________ 4. 846

__________ 5. 9 645

__________ 6. 75 358

__________ 7. 3 000

__________ 8. 5 125

__________ 9. 8 640

__________ 10. 6 182

Solution for Task 2:

A number is divisible by 2 if the number is even or if the last digit ends with 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8.
A number is divisible by 5 if the number ends with 5 or 0.
A number is divisible by 10 if the number ends with 0.

First, you need to identify the last number of a given digit. If it ends with 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 it is
divisible by 2. If the number ends with 0 or 5, it is divisible by 5 and if a two digit number ends
with 0, it is divisible by 10. 630 is divisible by 2, 5 and 10 because it ends with 0. 32 724 is
divisible by 2. It is not divisible by 5 and 10 because it ends with 4. 4110 is also divisible by 2, 5
and 10 because it ends with 0. 846 is divisible by 2 because it ends with 6. 9 645 is divisible by 5
because it ends with number 5…….and so on.
Answers: 1.) 2, 5, 10 2.) 2 3.) 2, 5, 10 4.) 2 5.) 5 6.) 2 7.) 2, 5, 10
8.) 5 9.) 2, 5, 10 10.) 2
