Example Question #1 : How To Multiply Even Numbers
Assume 
What is a possible solution for 
When two even numbers are multiplied, they must equal an even number. Also, since both variables are said to be even whole numbers, the answer must fit the requirement that its factors are two even numbers multiplied by one another. The only answer that fits both requirements is 
Example Question #5 : How To Multiply Even Numbers
Which of the following integers has an even integer value for all positive integers 
There are certain patterns that can be used to predict whether the product or sum of numbers will be odd or even. The sum of two odd numbers is always even, as is the sum of two even numbers. The sum of an odd number and an even number is always odd. In multiplication the product of two odd numbers is always odd. While the product of even numbers, as well as the product of odd numbers multiplied by even numbers is always even. So for this problem we need to find scenarios where the only possibile answers are even.
