Because not all odd numbers are multiples of 3 - I have shown you below that this is the case and you can see some multiples of 3 are even and some are odd and you can also see that there are even and odd numbers BETWEEN the multiples of 3.
1 (odd)
2 (even)
1*3 =3 (odd)
4 (even)
5 (odd)
2*3 = 6 (even)
7 (odd)
8 (even)
3*3 = 9 (odd)
10 (even)
11 (odd)
4*3 = 12 (even)

No, they are both even and odd. The numbers 18 and 36 are examples of even numbers divisible by nine.
No, 891 is not divisible by 2 because 891 is an odd number, all Odd numbers will never be divisible by 2. Even numbers are the only numbers divisible by 2.
No odd numbers are divisible by even numbers.
NO, it is not divisible by all numbers. This is easy to see if you remember that 27 is an odd number and odd numbers are NOT divisible by 2. Then there is the issue that is is NOT divisible by any number greater than itself. That is a lots of numbers that don't work!
Because many of them are divisible by smaller odd numbers. For example 35 is divisible by 5 and so 35 cannot be a prime number.
