Even or Odd Numbers

A whole number can either be odd or even.

An even number is a whole number that can be divided by 2. For example 8 is an even number as 8 \div 2 = 4 which is a whole number.

An odd number is a whole number that can’t be divided by 2. For example 5 is an odd number as 5 \div 2 = 2.5 which is not a whole number.
