To prove a hypothesis, one has to account for all possible cases and scenarios, which can be extremely difficult as there might be an infinite number of situations to consider. In contrast, to disprove a hypothesis, one only needs to find a single counter - example. A counter - example is a specific instance that shows the hypothesis does not hold. Since finding one counter - example is generally less work than proving a hypothesis for all cases, disproving a hypothesis is easier.
