Is a zero considered an even or odd number?

 


Hi Sylvia,

An integer is even if it is a multiple of 2. For example 18 = 9 2 is even.
Thus 0 is even as 0 = 0 2.

This is the answer I gave to this question a while ago but to see why it is natural to see 0 as even you should read the answer that Diane gave to a similar question.
