Question

Show the conjecture is false by finding a counterexample. If the product of two numbers is even, then the two numbers must be even.

hintHint:

Take 2 numbers and then check.

The correct answer is: Hence we disproved the conjecture


    Complete step by step solution:
    Here, take 2 numbers to be  and
    Then product of  and  is  which is an even number.
    Here, 2 is an even number and 5 is an odd number. We got product of an even
    number and odd number to be an even number.
    Hence we disproved the conjecture.
