**3. Write the contrapositive of:**

For all \( a \in \mathbb{Z} \), if \( 6 \mid a \) then \( 2 \mid a \) and \( 3 \mid a \).

**4. Write negations of the following quantified statements:**

(a) For all \( x \in \mathbb{R} \), if \( |x| > 5 \) then \( x < -5 \) or \( x > 5 \).

(b) There exist \( a, b \in \mathbb{Z} \), such that \( a \mid b \) and \( b \mid a \).

**5. The following statement is false, write the negation and disprove it using a counterexample:**

For all \( x \in \mathbb{R} \), if \( x < 2 \) then \( x^2 < 4 \).

Step 1

3)

We are given a conditional statement as-

“If p then q.”

A conditional statement consists of two parts, a hypothesis in the “if” clause and a conclusion in the “then” clause. 

The contrapositive of such statements is written as-

“If not q then not p.”

Also we can say that if the statement is true, then the contrapositive is also logically true. .
