Question

The sum of an odd number and an even number is always even.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

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, sum of odd and an even number

$5+6=11$

$7+8=15$

With the help of this example, we can conclude that the sum of an odd number and an even number is not always even.

Hence, the given statement is false.
