Question

which statement is equivalent to $sim p$?
p: even numbers are divisible by 2.
a. odd numbers are divisible by 2.
b. numbers that are divisible by 2 are not even.
c. numbers that are not divisible by 2 are even.
d. even numbers are not divisible by 2.

Explanation:

The negation of a statement $p$ (written as $\sim p$) reverses the truth value of the original statement. For the statement $p$: "Even numbers are divisible by 2", its negation directly contradicts the claim made in $p$.

Answer:

D. Even numbers are not divisible by 2.
