If you're talking about dividing without a remainder, the answer is no. As a counter example, take the simple: a= 6, b= 2, c=3. b divides a, since 6/2 = 3 (with no remainder), and c divides a, since 6/3 = 2 (with no remainder), but 6/(3+2) = 1 (with a remainder of 1).

No, (b+c) will not necessarily divide a.
