Yes it can be prime. A Prime number is any number that only has one and itself as factors. By definition even numbers have a factor of two. Therefore the only even number that is prime is the number 2.
The only even prime number is 2 because it has only two factors which are itself and one.
yes
yes
96 is even so it can be divided by 2 thus is not prime
It is a composite number because it has more than two factors and it is an even number. The only even number that is a prime number is 2
It is a composite number because it is an even number and the only even prime number is 2 because it has only two factors which are itself and one.
No. It is even and so divisible by 2.
Julia is incorrect. 2 is an even prime number and 9 is an odd composite number.
The definition of prime is a number that can only be divided by itself and 1, any even number greater than 2 is divisible by 2, therefore it cannot be prime.
Because 2 can only be multiplied by 1 and itself.
Any even number greater than 2 can be divided by 2 without remainder. It is, therefore, a composite number, not a prime.
3 consecutive numbers cannot be prime factors. Any three consecutive numbers would include at least one even number. The only even prime number is 2, and (2,3,4) doesn't qualify.
