Alright, sweetheart, let's keep it simple for you. Every even number has 2 as a factor. So, grab a calculator if you need to, and start counting by twos until you get tired. Just don't come crying to me when you realize there's an infinite number of them.
Can't quite tell what you mean by n3. 1) If that's n3, then: If n3 is even, it can be expressed as n * n * n = 2 * t (t is a natural number). You can see that two is a factor of n3, and so it has to be a factor of n, because there is no ther number that could contribute to it. So n is even too. 2) If you mean 3 * n, then: 3 * n = 2 * t, where t is a natural number. Again, the only number to contribute factor 2 for the right side of equation is n. So n has to be even too.
No. because odd numbers don't have 2 as a factor but even numbers do. So it won't be a whole number.
2 is an even number. I believe your confusion comes from the fact that 2 is a prime number, but it is still even. It is the only even number that is prime.
For a greatest common factor of 33, the number 66 (2 x 33) would be a smaller multiple than 99 (3 x 33).
