Solution

Divisibility by 6:

We know that A number is divisible by 6, if it is divisible by both 2 and 3.

Here, the given number is 78,651. Since, ending digit is 1, it will not be divisible by 2 and the Sum of the digits of the given number is 7+8+6+5+1=27 which is a multiple of 3, so it will be divisible by 3.

Since, the given number is divisible by 3 only.

Therefore, the given number will not be divisible by 6.
