The "if" part is the antecedent or hypothesis while the "then" part is the conclusion. The format is "if hypothesis, then conclusion". The given phrase can be translated to "If the number is even, then the number is divisible by 2"

Hypothesis: number is even

Conclusion: number is divisible by 2

That's why the answer is choice D
