It CAN'T be even, since the number 2 is not a factor of the odd number. "Even" means that a number is a multiple of 2.
The parity rules are: Odd + Odd = Even Even + Even = Even Odd + Even = Odd Even + Odd = Odd So the parity where one number is even is that of the other number. This means that you can go through a list of numbers and ignore all the even numbers. Every PAIR of odd numbers has even parity and by the previous paragraph, even parity can be ignored. So you can pair off odd numbers and ignore them.
You're not even going to believe that it is odd.
The first number is odd, the second is odd. Odd + Odd = Even ie the sum is even. Either number is greater than 2 so their sum is greater than 2. All even numbers greater than 2 are composite.
The best way I can explain this is the way my kindergardenn teacher taught me. In even numbers, all the numbers will have a partner. With 2 each little person/number will have a partner. Now with an odd number, (such as three) there will be a person/number alone. so if you add an even and an odd there will be on little person without a partner, causing it to be an odd.
Any number, regardless of odd or even, if multiplied by an even number, is always even. Ex: 4x6 is 24 4x5 is 20 5x5 is 25

Odd. Even + Even = Even Odd + Odd = Even Odd + Even = Even + Odd = Odd
wat is the answer to p(3 ,then even)

Julia is incorrect. 2 is an even prime number and 9 is an odd composite number.
The first number is odd, the second is odd. Odd + Odd = Even ie the sum is even. Either number is greater than 2 so their sum is greater than 2. All even numbers greater than 2 are composite.
If you multiply one even number by one odd number, the result is always even. In general, if you multiply several numbers, and at least one of the numbers is even, the product is always even. This is because "even" means "multiple of 2", and if one of the factors contains a 2 as a factor, so will the product.
odd * odd = odd answer even * even = even answer odd * even = even answer
even times even = even odd times even = even odd times odd = odd
Since odd numbers don't have any even factors, they can't have any in common.
