Let's go through the list of values and test the claim
Is 32 divisible by 2? Yes because 16*2 = 32. Is it also divisible by 4? Yes because 8*4 = 32. So we can cross choice A off the list
Is 12 divisible by 2? Yes because 6*2 = 12. Is it also divisible by 4? Yes because 3*4 = 12. So we can cross choice B off the list.
Is 40 divisible by 2? Yes because 2*20 = 40. Is it also divisible by 4? Yes because 4*10 = 40. Choice C is also crossed off the list.
Is 18 divisible by 2? Yes because 2*9 = 18. Is it also divisible by 4? No. We can see that by dividing 18/4 = 4.5 which is not a whole number result. Or you can list out the multiples of 4 which are 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 and we see that 18 is not on the list.
So choice D) 18 is the answer. This is a counter example to show that the claim "if number is divisible by 2, then it is also divisible by 4" is a false statement.
