q only if p. The converse of a statement is just swapping the places of the two terms.

if the statement is : if p then q converse: if q then p inverse: if not p then not q contrapositive: if not q then not
"If a number is an integer, then it is a whole number." In math terms, the converse of p-->q is q-->p. Note that although the statement in the problem is true, the converse that I just stated is not necessarily true.
No, the inverse is not the negation of the converse. Actually, that is contrapositive you are referring to. The inverse is the negation of the conditional statement. For instance:P → Q~P → ~Q where ~ is the negation symbol of the sentence symbols.
Only if p and q are DIFFERENT primes.
Barkeepers used to keep track of what a drinker consumed by pints and quarts thus the p and q. Mind your p's and q's simply meant drink only what you paid for.

It is an if and only if (often shortened to iff) is usually written as p <=> q. This is also known as Equivalence. If you have a conditional p => q and it's converse q => p we can then connect them with an & we have: p => q & q => p. So, in essence, Equivalence is just a shortened version of p => q & q => p .
Converse: If p r then p q and q rContrapositive: If not p r then not (p q and q r) = If not p r then not p q or not q r Inverse: If not p q and q r then not p r = If not p q or not q r then not p r

An OR with one input inverted will be either "implication" or "converse implication" depending on your point of view. Given an OR with inputs "P" and "Q", You'd invert "P" to get implication. You'd invert "Q" to get converse implication. In prose converse implication would be "P OR NOT Q".

The statement "p if and only if q" is true when both p and q are true, or when both p and q are false.

Only if p and q are DIFFERENT primes.
Yes.Any prime number has only 1 and itself as its factors. So given any two different primes, P and Q, the first has only 1 and P as factors while the second has only 1 and Q as factors.Since P is a prime, Q cannot be a factor of P, and since Q is a prime, P cannot be a factor of Q. Therefore P and Q are co-prime.
