Question

m square-1 is divisible by 8, if m is even integer ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The given statement is false.

Correct statement is-

m square - 1 is divisible by 8 only if m is an odd integer(where m>1)

Logical deduction-

The square of an odd integer is always odd. So, if m is an odd number , the square of m will also be odd number.

We know that all the multiples of 8 are even numbers.Therefore, m square - 1 has to be even.

So,

The even number will be one less than number( m square, which we have taken odd)

So, the even number will be m square - 1 .
