Method 1. The division of the two numbers:
A natural number 'A' could only be divisible by another number 'B' if after dividing 'A' by 'B' the remainder was zero.
111,513 would be divisible by 37,171 only if there was a natural number 'n', so that:
111,513 = 'n' × 37,171
If we divide the two numbers, the remainder is zero:
111,513 ÷ 37,171 = 3 + 0;
=> 111,513 = 3 × 37,171;
=> The number 111,513 is divisible by 37,171.
