Today, we’re going to learn about numbers that can be divided by two. Imagine we have 264 robots, and we want to put two robots in each box. We need to figure out if all the boxes will be full or if there will be any robots left over. To do this, we use something called the “divisibility rule” for the number two.
Here’s a simple trick: if a number is even, it can be divided by two without any leftovers. If a number is odd, it cannot be divided evenly by two. So, how do we know if a number is even or odd? We just look at the last digit!
Let’s look at the number 264. The last digit is 4. Since 4 is an even number, this means 264 is also even. Therefore, 264 can be divided by two, and there will be no robots left over.
We can test this rule by dividing 264 by two. When we do, we find that the remainder is zero, which means 264 is perfectly divisible by two. So, all the boxes will be full with no robots left out!

Number Hunt: Go on a number hunt around your home or classroom. Look for numbers on clocks, books, or even food packages. Write down the numbers you find and check the last digit of each number. Decide if each number is even or odd. Can you find more even numbers or odd numbers?
Robot Sorting Game: Pretend you have a collection of toy robots. Group them into pairs. If you can pair all the robots without any left over, the total number of robots is even. If one robot is left without a pair, the number is odd. Try this with different numbers of robots and see what you discover!
Divisibility Detective: Be a detective and find out if the numbers in your phone number are even or odd. Write down your phone number and check each digit. How many even numbers do you have? How many odd numbers? Share your findings with a friend or family member!

In this video, we will explore numbers that are divisible by two. We have 264 robots, and I want to place two robots in each box. To determine if all the boxes will be full or if there will be any robots left over, we can use the divisibility rule for two. If a number is even, it is divisible by two; if it is odd, it is not.
To check if a number is odd or even, we look at its last digit. The last digit of 264 is 4, which is even, so 264 is divisible by two. Let’s test this rule: the remainder is zero, confirming that 264 is indeed divisible by two. Therefore, there are no robots left over.
