One interesting way (found in some books) is to take the two left-most digits‚ multiply the left digit by 3 and add it to the second digit. Replace these two digits with the result. Then we can keep repeating‚ always dealing with only the two left-most digits‚ until we end up with a small number which is either divisible by 7 or not. Pretend we have a two digit number‚ 10x+y. We multiply the left digit by 3 and add the second digit: 3x+y. All we did was just subtract 7x. If 3x+y is divisible by 7‚ then
