Answer» RIGHT answer is (a) If x is divisible by 2 then x MUST be divisible by 4 The best I can explain: Converse statement for GIVEN statement “if p then Q” is “if q then p” i.e. q => p. So, converse for “If x is divisible by 4 then x must be divisible by 2” is “If x is divisible by 2 then x is must be divisible by 4”. |
