Find the counterexample to show that the statement is incorrect. The difference of any two counting numbers will be a counting number Choose the correct answer below. A. 3-5= -2, which is not a counting number. B. 7-4 = 3, which is not a counting number. C. 10-2 = 8, which is counting number D. There is no counterexample. The statement is correct.

A. 3-5= -2, which is not a counting number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Counting numbers are non negative numbers greater than 1 up to infinity. Counting numbers are also called natural numbers, and they do not include the negative numbers.

The statement states that "The difference of any two counting numbers will be a counting number"

From option A we can disprove that, since we can see that not all the difference between two counting numbers gives a counting number.

3 is a counting number

5 is a counting number

The difference between 3 and 5 gives -3, which is not a counting number.

This is a counterexample to the statement above.
