Since 9 is odd and the product of an
odd number and an even number is
Let n be an arbitrary integer and
even,
assume 9n is even.
Since 9 is odd and the product of odd
Since an even number divided by 9
numbers is odd,
must be even,
9n must be odd.
9n must be even
Let n be an arbitrary integer and
assume n is even.
Let n be an arbitrary integer and
assume n is odd.
n must be even
