Check if a number is divisible by 8 using bitwise operators

Last Updated : 31 May, 2022

Given a number n, check if it is divisible by 8 using bitwise operators.
Examples:

Input : 16
Output :YES

Input :15
Output :NO

Approach: Result = (((n >> 3) << 3) == n). First we shift the 3 bit right then we shift the 3 bit left and then compare the number with the given number if the number is equal to the number then it is the divisible by 8 .
Explanation:
Example: n = 16 given so binary of the 16 is 10000 now we shift the 3 bit right, now we have 00010 so again we shift the 3 bit left, then we have 10000 now compare with the given number first 16==16 in binary so it true so the number is divisible by 8.
