Are there any other pairs of consecutive primes other than 2 and 3?
yes, 1 and 2
How many pairs of prime numbers are there which are consecutive odd integers?
There are an infinite number of prime numbers which are consecutive odd integers. Choose any natural number n. Take all primes up to any number n, take their product, and add 1 and subtract 1 from it. These 2 numbers are consecutive odd integers. eg 2*3*5*7 = 210 209 and 211 are primes which are consecutive odd integers.
What any two consecutive numbers add up to make 12?
Consecutive numbers will always total an odd number. Consecutive odd numbers or consecutive primes would be 5 and 7.
All co primes twin primes. True or false?
False. Co-primes are not the same as twin primes.Co-primes are any numbers having no common factorsother than 1. Examples of co-primes are 8 and 9 or 15 and 32.Twin primes are pairs of prime numbers exactly 2 apart such as 11 and 13 or 659 and 661.
Why aren't there any other pairs of consecutive prime numbers?
Ah hah! You didn't say so, but you must be talking about 2 and 3 ... the only two consecutive numbers that are both prime numbers. There can't be any others. Because if you have any other two consecutive numbers, one of them has to be an even number ... divisible by 2. Since that number is divisible by 2, it's not a prime number.
