Answer:

c) 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The even numbers are those that when divided by two give an exact number

The statement says All whole numbers are even.

Let's check it

[tex]2\div 2=1[/tex]

[tex]9\div 2= 4.5 [/tex]

[tex]6\div 2=3[/tex]

[tex]4\div 2=2[/tex]

9 is the counterexample that shows the statement is false because 9 is a whole number and is not even.
