Example Question #3 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Quantitative Reasoning
Which of the following is NOT true about the number 18?
It is divisble by 3.
It is divisble by 6.
It is divisible by 18.
It is divisible by 12.
It is divisible by 12.
While the number 18 is divisible by 3, 6, and 18, it is not divisible by 12.
Dividing 18 by 12 results in a remainder of 6.
Therefore, the statement that is not true about the number 18 (and is hence the correct answer choice) is "It is divisible by 12."
Example Question #4 : Isee Lower Level (Grades 5 6) Quantitative Reasoning
Which of the following is a factor of 24?
A factor of a number is one that can be evenly divided into it. Given that 6 can be evenly divided in 24 (24 divided by 6 is 4), 6 is the correct answer.
