Default check if an entry is a multiple of another cell

Hi,

Select those cells (say a1 - a100) then use data validation formula

=MOD(A1,12)=0

I am creating an order form in which I have cells that are used to enter a
certain quantity of pencils. The pencils must be ordered in multiples of 12.
How can I use Data Validation to check if the ordered quantity is always a
multiple of 12?

Thanks,
JM
