Read the following conjecture. Any number that is divisible by 2 is also divisible by 6. Find a counterexample to show that the conjecture is false. 24 14 12 18

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so lets try 2*6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which is??????????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12

OpenStudy (thesmartestderpalive):

its 12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, it is 12 because it is divisible by 6 and 2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but it says "Find a counterexample to show that the conjecture is false"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so wouldn't it be 14 because you cant divide it by 6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So which one is not divisible by 6 and 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

CORRECT!!!!!!! Good job!

OpenStudy (anonymous):
