Any number that is divisible by 6 is already divisible by 2, but is not necessarily divisible by 12.

Counterexamples include: 6, 18, 30, 42, 54, and so on. You can find more by multiplying 6 by any odd number. However, multiplying 6 by an even number provides another "2" that would make it divisible by 12.
