3.) For each of the following determine whether the statement is true or false.

●
●
TRUE!
For a number to be even it must be divisible by 2.0+ 2 = 0 or in words zero can
be broken into two equal groups of zero. Therefore zero is an even number.
If the statement is false, provide a counterexample to it (an example shows the
statement is wrong).
Example: All numbers are either positive or negative
FALSE! Zero is neither positive nor negative.
a.) A proper fraction divided by another proper fraction will always evaluate to a proper fraction.

on the number line.
c.) A proper fraction divided by an improper fraction will always evaluate to a proper fraction.
