Trivia Thursday!
We are almost done with the week, so it's time for our weekly fun fact about math or numbers. Today's interesting fact:

Do you want to know if a number is divisible by 3? Simply add up the digits. If your sum is divisible by 3, the entire number is divisible by 3!

EXAMPLE: 127,746: 1+2+7+7+4+6=27. 27 is divisible by 3, so 127,746 is divisible by 3!

Enjoy the rest of your day!
