Answer:
462 is even, so it is divisible by 2.
The sum of the odd numbered digits, 4 + 2 is 6, which is the 2nd digit, so 462 is divisible by 11.
Since both of those 6’s above are divisible by 3, then 462 is divisible by 3.
Separate the last digit from the rest and double it. 462 → 46 and 2; Doubling 2, gives us 4. Now subtract that 4 from the remaining digits: 46 – 4 = 42 which is divisible by 7, so 462 is divisible by 7.
