ternary operator within .filter()

A simple example.

var evens= true;
var numbers = [1,2,3,4,5]
var result = [];
  
if(evens){
  result = numbers.filter(num => num%2 === 0)
} else {
  result = numbers.filter(num => num%2 !== 0)
} 

Is there a way to get something like result = numbers.filter(num => num%2 (evens) ? === : !== 0) where depending on ‘evens’ to use equals or not equals to 0 within the .filter function? Is there a way to reuse same function to not have replication?

Answer

How about just

result = numbers.filter(num => !(num % 2) === evens)
