Statement 2 If a number is divisible by 8, then 8 also divides any two numbers (separately) that add up to the number.Since the number is divisible by 8, it must be a Multiple of 8 So, the number is Number = 8m where m is an integer Now, it says that the number is divided into two parts So, 8m = p + q And, we need to check if p and q are divisible by 8 i.e. we need to check if p & q are multiples of 8 We can take an example Let Number = 40 Here, 40 is divisible If we write 40 = 20 + 20 Then, So, it is the individual numbers are not divisible by 8 But, if we write 40 = 16 + 24 Then, So, this statement is Sometimes True
