That really depends what numbers you are considering.If you consider the set of natural numbers, starting with zero, then no: the smallest even number is zero.If you exclude zero, and start counting at 1, then yes, two is the smallest even number.If you consider the set of integers (i.e., both positive and negative whole numbers), then there is no smallest even number.
Yes, zero is the smallest even number. An even number is any integer that is divisible by 2 without leaving a remainder. Since zero divided by 2 equals zero, it meets the criteria of being an even number.
Technically, the answer is zero. Since zero times anything is always zero, the smallest product that can be made is always zero no matter what other factors are at play.
