EG1) Can 4693 be divided by 7 ?
Remove the 3 and double it = 6
469 - 3 = 463
Remove the 3 and double it = 6
46 - 6 = 40
Remove the 0 and double it = 0
4 - 0 = 4
4 is not in the 7 times table so therefore 4693 can't be divided by 7.
EG2) Can 1234 be divided by 11?
1 - 2 + 3 - 4
1-2 = -1
-1 + 3 = 2
2 - 4 = -2
-2 is not in the 11 times table so 1234 can't be divided by 11.
