Well, honey, let me break it down for you. The sum of two prime numbers can definitely be composite. Take 2 and 3 for example - both prime, but when you add them together, you get 5, which is still prime. But toss in 2 and 4, both prime, and you get 6, which is as composite as it gets. So, yes, the sum of two prime numbers can absolutely be composite.

Oh, dude, let me drop some knowledge on you. The sum of two prime numbers can totally be composite. Like, imagine adding 3 and 5, which are both prime, you get 8, which is composite. So, yeah, it's totally possible. Cool, right?

but it can be prime as well right

Not always, for example 2 + 3 = 5 where 5 is also a prime number.
