Answer:
2, 3, 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Simply try each value using long division.
2:
Since 5,238 ends in an even number, that automatically means it is divisible by 2.
5238/2=2619
Now for 3:
5238/3=1746 no remainder or decimal, so 3 also works
4:
You can either do long division again with 4, or you can see if 5238 divided by 2 (5238/2) is also divisible by 2. Since 2619 doesn't end in an even number, 4 is a no go.
Long division 5238/4=1309.5 decimal here, so 4 isn't an answer
5:
This is also very easy, simply check if the number ends in 0 or 5. Since 5,238 does not, 5 doesn't work either.
6:
You can do the same thing as with 4, except this time trying to find if 5238 divided by 3 (5238/3) is divisible by 2. Since 1746 ends in an even number, 6 also works.
Long division: 5238/6=873
9:
You can do the same thing as with 6, except this time trying to find if 5238 divided by 3 (5238/3) is divisible by 3.
1746/3=548 with a remainder of 2, which means 9 doesn't work
Long division: 5238/9=548.66 repeating
10:
Finally, 10 is another easy one. Simply check if the number ends in 0. 5,238 does not, so 10 doesn't work.
