Can anybody help help me on this Geometry question I have? Amanda did the following proof in her logic class. Which step in the indirect proof did she do incorrectly? Prove: 9 is divisible by 3. Step 1: Assume that 9 is divisible by three. Step 2: 3 times 3 equals nine. 9 divided by three is three. Step 3: 9 is divisible by 3. Step 3 Steps 2 and 3 Step 2 Step 1

Any ideas?

OpenStudy (znappydooz):

I think it's Step 2 and 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Step 1 says to assume 9 is divisible by 3. This is what google defines assume as: suppose to be the case, without proof So what do you think the answer is?

OpenStudy (znappydooz):

So... That'd be D; Step 1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Correct!
