Give a non-zero counterexample to the following statement:

Every multiple of 10 is also a multiple of 30.


Sagot :

Answer:

20 or 40 or 50

(there are many others)

Step-by-step explanation:

A counterexample is an example that shows the statement is not true. The statement in this question is that if a number is a multiple of 10 (10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60...) then it is a multiple of 30. Some numbers are, like 60 and 90, but not all numbers. So for example (counterexample) 20 is a multiple of 10 but NOT a multiple of 30.

40 is a multiple of 10, but NOT a multople of 30.

50 is a multiple of 10, but NOT a multiple of 30.
