If you multiply an even number by and odd number, what type of number will the answer be?
Even
Odd
Zero
A non-zero integer
If you multiply an even number by and odd number, what type of number will the answer be?
For this question, let's try out a pair of numbers
Even: 6
Odd: 3
Now, if we multiply them, we get:
18, an even number.
Any number multiplied by an even number will yield an even number.

If two odd numbers are multiplied, what will the product be?
Odd
Even
Not enough information to solve
Zero
If two odd numbers are multiplied, what will the product be?
Let's begin by making up two numbers and seeing what we get.
So, we get 15, an odd number. Regardless of the two odd numbers we choose, we will always get an odd product.
Solve:
Add the ones digits:
Since there is no tens digit to carry over, proceed to add the tens digits:
The answer is .

If n is an integer that is not equal to 0, which of the following must be greater than or equal to n?
I. 7n
II. n + 5
III. n2
II only
I and II only
I and III only
II and III only
I, II, and III
I is not always true because a negative number multiplied by 7 will give a number that is more negative than the original. II is true because adding 5 to any number will increase the value. III is true because squaring any number will increase the magnitude of the value, and squaring a negative number will make it positive.
