Numbers divisible by 100 are divisible by 5. conclusion: 49,700 is divisible by 5. what additional true statement would need to be given in order to state the conclusion using the law of detachment? a. numbers divisible by 5 are divisible by 100. b. numbers are divisible by 100. c. 49,700 is a number. d. 49,700 is divisible by 100.

The answer is D. 49,700 is divisible by 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the law of detachment:

If p, then q.

q would be "49,700 is divisible by 5", so you need that p "49,700 is divisible by 100" be true.

Furthermore, by definition, a number is divisible by another number, if the given divisor divides the number with the remainder equal to 0.

In this case:

49,700/100 = 497, with remainder 0.
