2. Find a strategy
4,8,12,16,20,24,28,32;...
From that illustration, we can say that all the numbers that are listed there is an even numbers and
divisible by 4.
4,6;...
As we can see in the illustration 6 is also an even number but not divisible by 4.
Answer: The statement cannot be true, and the counter is 6 because 4 is not divisible by 6.
As we can see in the given statement is incorrect because not all even number is divisible by 4.
Example
Problem
1.
Let's verify that any statement of number divided by itself is 1 will be incorrect by giving counter
example.
The number of examples that satisfy the requirement "any number divided by itself is one" " is limitless,
however doing so would take a very long time. To narrow our focus and, most likely, provide us with one
value that will render the statement untrue.
5/5 = 1
4/4=1
3/3=1
2/2=1
1/1=1
What's great is that the counterexample strategy's goal wherein if we provide only one false example,
then we have a problem is fixed.
0/0 = 0
4.
It conclude that any number divided by itself resulting 1 is not true for all numbers.
2 Find a strategy We use the strategy of finding counter example for this problem.
3. Use the strategy to solve the problem. To start, list the difference of any twin whole numbers that can
be divisible by
Difference of
13-3-10
1045 2
100÷ 5 = 20
108-8-100
50-20-30
any
Divisible by 5:
30=5-6
the given example is FALSE because not all whole mumbers are divisible by 5.
