Solution

13=1
23=8
33=27
43=64
53=125 so on.
Assume a general even number to be of the form 2n where n is a whole number.
This is true for all even numbers, by definition are divisible by 2.
Cube of a general even number= 2n×2n×2n=8n
This number 8n is again divisible by 2
So cube of an even natural number is even.
