Given a number, the task is to check if a number is divisible by 2, 3, and 5 or not. The input number may be large and it may not be possible to store even if we use long long int, so the number is taken as a string.
Examples: 
 

Input : str = "725" 
Output : NO

Input : str = "263730746028908374890"
Output : YES


 


A number is divisible by 2 if it's right most digit is even and also a number is divisible by 5 if it's right most digit is zero or five.
So, from above two observations, one can conclude that for the number to be divisible by both 2 and 5 the rightmost digit of the number must be zero.
Now, a number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by three.
Therefore, a number will be divisible by all of 2, 3, and 5 if: 
 

  • Its rightmost digit is zero.
  • Sum of all of its digits is divisible by 3.


Below is the implementation of the above approach: 
 

C++ 
// CPP program to Check if a large number is
// divisible by 2, 3 and 5 or not.
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;

// function to return sum of digits of
// a number
int SumOfDigits(string str, int n)
{
    int sum = 0;

    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        sum += (int)(str[i] - '0');

    return sum;
}

// function to Check if a large number is
// divisible by 2, 3 and 5 or not
bool Divisible(string str, int n)
{
    if (SumOfDigits(str, n) % 3 == 0 and str[n - 1] == '0')
        return true;

    return false;
}

// Driver code
int main()
{
    string str = "263730746028908374890";

    int n = str.size();

    if (Divisible(str, n))
        cout << "YES";
    else
        cout << "NO";

    return 0;
}
C 
// C program to Check if a large number is
// divisible by 2, 3 and 5 or not.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdbool.h>
#include <string.h>

// function to return sum of digits of
// a number
int SumOfDigits(char str[], int n)
{
    int sum = 0;

    for (int i = 0; i < n; i++)
        sum += (int)(str[i] - '0');

    return sum;
}

// function to Check if a large number is
// divisible by 2, 3 and 5 or not
bool Divisible(char str[], int n)
{
    if (SumOfDigits(str, n) % 3 == 0 && str[n - 1] == '0')
        return true;

    return false;
}

// Driver code
int main()
{
    char str[] = "263730746028908374890";

    int n = strlen(str);

    if (Divisible(str, n))
        printf("YES");
    else
        printf("NO");

    return 0;
}

Time Complexity: O(n), where n is the size of the given string str
Auxiliary Space: O(1), as no extra space is required

Another approach:

Approach:

1. Check if the last digit of the number is even. If it is, then the number is divisible by 2.
2. Check if the sum of the digits of the number is divisible by 3. If it is, then the number is divisible by 3.
3. Check if the last digit of the number is 0 or 5. If it is, then the number is divisible by 5.

Output
1234567890123456789 is not divisible by 2
0 is divisible by 3
0 is not divisible by 5

Time Complexity: O(log10(n)), where n is the number being checked, because we iterate over each digit of the number once.

Space Complexity: O(1), because we only need a few variables to store the state of the algorithm
