Question

If m is a whole number, then 2 m denotes a multiple of 2.

Options

• True

• False

Answer 1

This statement is True.

Explanation:

Given, m is a whole number.

Put m = 0, 1, 2, 3,...

2 m = 2 × 0 = 0,

2 m = 2 × 1 = 2,

2 m = 2 × 2 = 4,

2 m = 2 × 3 = 6,

Clearly, 2 m is the multiple of 2.

So, multiples of 2 are 2, 4, 6,...
