All whole numbers, when multiplied by two (2) are even numbers (Of course, this includes zero, which is an even number).

Is the product positive or negative when an even number of negative numbers are multiplied?

Any 2 negative numbers, whether even or odd, when multiplied are positive


Why is the product of two consecutive numbers is always odd?

When multiplied together, an odd number and an even number will always produce an odd number. Two consecutive numbers consist of one odd number and one even number, so their product is always an odd number. N-n-n-no! Any number multiplied by an even number yields an even product. Ever;y even number can be expressed as 2*M for some M. If we multiply 2*M by Y, the product is 2*M*Y = 2*(M*Y) which is even. So the right answer is: They don't! The product of two consecutive numbers is always even. Regards, Bill Drissel


What do you get when you add an even number and an odd number?

An even number can be divided by 2 evenly. An odd number will have a remainder of 1 when divided by 2. Even plus odd is odd.


What do you get when you multiply an odd number an a even number?

An even number can be divided by 2 evenly. An odd number will have a remainder of 1 when divided by 2. Odd times even is even.


Why even divided by odd equal even?

Odd numbers do NOT have a factor of 2. When an Even number is divided by an Odd number with no remainder, the prime factors of the divisor cancel out the prime factors of the dividend, but there will be no prime 2 to cancel the prime factor of 2 in the dividend leaving the the quotient to have a factor of 2, and so will be Even. --------------------------------------------------------- Alternatively, consider what happens when you multiply Odd and Even numbers: Odd × Odd = Odd Odd × Even = Even Even × Even = Even The result is Even ONLY if at least one of the numbers multiplied together is Even. Thus if you divide an Even number by an Odd number, the result must be Even. Also consider that Odd times Odd is Odd. Multiplication is the inverse of division, so if you have: dividend ÷ divisor = quotient then dividend = quotient × divisor Now, if the divisor is Odd and the quotient is Odd, the the Dividend MUST be Odd (since Odd × Odd = Odd). Thus if the Dividend is Even and the Divisor is Odd, then the Quotient must be Even.
