An even number is any whole number that can be exactly divided by two, without leaving any remainder. This means that if you split an even number into two equal parts, each part will be a whole number. For example, numbers like 2, 4, 6, and 8 are all even because dividing them by two results in whole numbers. In mathematics, even numbers can play crucial roles in various operations and patterns, making them important to understand when studying GCSE Maths. Even numbers can end in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8.
