The statement "the sum of a number and 1 is the number itself" is False
Given :
The statement "the sum of a number and 1 is the number itself"
To find :
True/False the statement
Solution :
Step 1 of 2 :
Write down the given statement
Here the given statement is "the sum of a number and 1 is the number itself"
Step 2 of 2 :
True/False the statement
Let n be any number
Now the sum of the number n and 1 is n + 1 , which can not be equal to the number n
For example, let us take a number say, 11
Then the sum of the number 11 and 1
= 11 + 1
= 12 ≠ 11
More precisely , the sum of the number and 1 is the successor of the number
So the sum of a number and 1 can not be the number itself
Hence the statement is False
Additional information :
For any given number N , the successor is obtained by adding 1 with the number and the predecessor is obtained subtracting 1 from the number
The successor of N = N + 1
The predecessor of N = N - 1
