Question

What is the converse of the following: "If n is prime then n is odd or n is 2." A. If n is prime then n is odd or n is 2 B. If n is odd or n is 2 then n is composite. C. If n is even but not 2 then n is composite. D. If n is odd or n is 2 thenn is prime. E. If n is composite then n is even but not 2. F. If n is prime then n is even but not

Answer 1

Option D "If n is odd or n is 2 then n is prime"

Explanation:

we know that

To form the converse of the conditional statement, interchange the hypothesis and the conclusion.

In this problem

the conditional statement is "If n is prime then n is odd or n is 2."

The hypothesis is "If n is prime"

The conclusion is "n is odd or n is 2."

therefore

interchange the hypothesis and the conclusion

The converse is "If n is odd or n is 2 then n is prime"
