Solution

The correct option is B False

Even number : Numbers which are exactly divisible by 2 are known as even numbers. Ex- 2,4,6,8....

Odd number : Numbers which are not exactly divisible by 2 are known as odd numbers. Ex- 3,5,7,9....

Now, product of odd and an even number

2×5=10

4×7=28

From these example, we can conclude that the product of an even number and an odd number is always even.

Hence, the given statement is false.
