1. If n is a whole number, then n2+n+11 is a prime number.

• It is true in all cases.

2. If a number is divisible by 15, then it is an odd number.

• The number 60 is divisible by 15, but it is not an odd number.

3. If a number is divisible by 3, then it is also divisible by 15.

• The number 12 is divisible by 3, but it is not divisible by 15.

4. If a positive number is decreased by 20, then the result is a positive number. • The

positive number is 5 decreased by 20 the result was negative 15.

5. If a negative number is increased by 10, then the result is a positive number.

• The negative number is 15 increased by 10 the result will be negative 5.

6. If a number is divisible by both 2 and 10, then it is also divisible by 20.

• The number is 30 both divisible by 2 and 10, but it is not divisible by 20.

7. If a number divisible by 3 is multiplied to another number divisible by 3, then the result is

odd.

• If we multiplied the number 9 to 12 which is both divisible by 3, the result was 108
which is an even number.

8. If a number divisible by 5 is multiplied to another number divisible by 5, then the result is

even.

• If we multiplied the number 15 to 45 which is both divisible by 5, the result was 675
