Grade 2 Math

Even and odd numbers

Even and odd numbers helps children practise identifying even and odd numbers to 100 and extending simple alternating sequences. Read the short guide and look through the examples before choosing online practice or a printable worksheet.

How to solve this

  • A number is even if its last digit is 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8; it is odd if the last digit is 1, 3, 5, 7, or 9.
  • You only need to look at the ones digit — the tens digit does not change whether a number is even or odd.
  • Check by trying to share the objects into two equal groups: if nothing is left over, the number is even.
