Check if a number is divisible by 47 or not
Last Updated :

Given a number N, the task is to check whether the number is divisible by 47 or not.
Examples:
Input: N = 1645
Output: yes
Explanation:
47 * 35 = 1645
Input: N = 4606
Output: yes
Explanation:
47 * 98 = 4606
Approach: The divisibility test of 47 is:
- Extract the last digit.
- Subtract 14 * last digit from the remaining number obtained after removing the last digit.
- Repeat the above steps until a two-digit number, or zero, is obtained.
- If the two-digit number is divisible by 47, or it is 0, then the original number is also divisible by 47.
For example:
If N = 59173
Step 1:
N = 59173
Last digit = 3
Remaining number = 5917
Subtracting 14 times last digit
Resultant number = 5917 - 14*3 = 5875
Step 2:
N = 5875
Last digit = 5
Remaining number = 587
Subtracting 14 times last digit
Resultant number = 587 - 14*5 = 517
Step 3:
N = 517
Last digit = 7
Remaining number = 51
Subtracting 14 times last digit
Resultant number = 51 - 14*7 = -47
Step 4:
N = -47
Since N is a two-digit number,
and -47 is divisible by 47
Therefore N = 59173 is also divisible by 47
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
C++
// C++ program to check whether a number
// is divisible by 47 or not
#include<bits/stdc++.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
using namespace std;
// Function to check if the number is divisible by 47 or not
bool isDivisible(int n)
{
int d;
// While there are at least two digits
while (n / 100)
{
// Extracting the last
d = n % 10;
// Truncating the number
n /= 10;
// Subtracting fourteen times the last
// digit to the remaining number
n = abs(n-(d * 14));
}
// Finally return if the two-digit
// number is divisible by 47 or not
return (n % 47 == 0) ;
}
// Driver Code
int main() {
int N = 59173;
if (isDivisible(N))
cout<<"Yes"<<endl ;
else
cout<<"No"<<endl ;
return 0;
