No, the sum of a prime number and a composite number is not always even.
The sum of three odd numbers will be odd, whether they are prime or not. The sum of three prime numbers can be even as long as one of them is 2.
Yes. all prime numbers are odd numbers so the sum of any two will be an even number.
Yes.The sum of any six prime numbers, excluding 2, will be even. So the sum will be composite.
Without using the number two, it is not possible to sum two prime numbers at get a prime number as a result. This is because all prime numbers (except for 2) are odd, and the sum of two odd numbers is always even. The only even prime number is 2. The only way to add two non-zero positive numbers to get 2 is 1+1, and 1 is not a prime number (since it only has one factor).
No, the sum of a prime number and a composite number is not always even.
It doesn't have to be a prime number and an even number. The sum of any two whole numbers is a whole number. Also, the sum of two even numbers is an even number, the sum of two odd numbers is an even number, and the sum of an odd number and an even number is an odd number.
The sum of two prime numbers greater than 2 is an even number. The sum of 2 and any other prime number is an odd number.
No.
There is only one prime number and it is '2' You cannot have any other even prime number
It cannot be. If 47 is the sum of two prime numbers, one must be an even number and one must be an odd number, because that is the only way to have a sum that is an odd number, such as 47. The only even prime number is 2. The number that with 2 will have a sum of 47 is 45. However, 45 is not a prime number. Therefore, there are not two prime numbers that have a sum of 47.
The sum of any pair of prime numbers greater than 2 is an even number.
The sum of three odd numbers will be odd, whether they are prime or not. The sum of three prime numbers can be even as long as one of them is 2.
Becouse every prime number (except 2) is odd, the sum of 2 prime numbers will always be even (and 2 is the only even prime). The exceptions are 11 and 2 for example; 11 = prime, 2 = prime and 13=prime.
5 + 7 = 12
Yes. all prime numbers are odd numbers so the sum of any two will be an even number.
Yes.The sum of any six prime numbers, excluding 2, will be even. So the sum will be composite.
