take the last digit, double it, and subtract it from the rest of the number;
if the answer is divisible by 7 (including 0), then the number is also.
ex:
the number is 861

ake the last digit 1, double it (2) , and subtract it from the rest of the number 86-2=84
the 84 is divisible by 7...->84%2F7=12 (including 0),
then the number 861 is also divisible by 7
861%2F7=123
