An even number is exactly divisible by 2.

52 is even.

Explanation:

An even number is one that is exactly divisible by 2.

The digit in the units place there must be one of: 0, 2, 4, 6, 8

The value of the digits in the tens, hundreds, thousands place do not have any effect on the divisibility.

The following numbers ARE even:

13,974, 8,568, 7,916, 350

The following numbers ARE NOT even (ie they are ODD):

24,657, 8,761, 9,453, 865

In this case: 52รท2=26
