Question

How many counterexamples does it take to show that a conditonal statement is false?

Answer 1

Answer:

one

Explanation:

First, note that a conditional statement in mathematics refers to a statement in which a hypothesis is given followed by a conclusion. Such as saying if P then "Q”, P  and Q  are sentences.

For example, a good example of conditional statement;

"If today is Sunday, then tomorrow is Monday"(hypothesis not underlined; condition underlined). While the counterexample could be one example or statement that satisfies the condition(s) of the statement but does not satisfy the conclusion.
