10. olivia wrote the following indirect proof:
prove: 17 is a factor of 323.
step 1: assume that 17 is not a factor of 323.
step 2: 323 divided by 17 is 19.
step 3: a factor is an integer by which another integer is divisible.
step 4: therefore, 17 cannot be a factor of 323.
which step in olivia's proof is incorrect?
