Question 1172526
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">



Six newspapers divided by six papers per delivery route = one delivery route.


12 newspapers divided by six papers per delivery route = two delivery routes.


*[tex \Large x] newspapers divided by six papers per delivery route = *[tex \Large \frac{x}{6}] delivery routes.


Which, of course, only makes sense if *[tex \Large x] is a positive integer evenly divisible by six.  Any even integer where the sum of the digits is evenly divisible by three is divisible by six. For example, 54 is a positive even integer and 5 plus 4 is 9 which is evenly divisible by 3.  Is 78 evenly divisible by 6?
