The smallest divisor of any even integer is 2, since even integers are defined as those that are divisible by 2. This means that every even integer can be expressed in the form of (2k), where (k) is an integer. Consequently, 2 is the smallest positive integer that divides any even number without leaving a remainder.

That's correct - there is none. For any integer, you can subtract one to get an even smaller integer.
The smallest even number greater than 30,000 might contain a number like 30,002.

No. For any integer, you can add one to get an even greater integer.
No, the greatest common factor is never greater than the smallest number. The greatest common factor is the largest integer that divides evenly into all of the numbers listed.
The greatest integer that is less than -4 is -5. -5 is next largest integer, even though it has the smallest absolute value for the set of number <-4. This is because the less negative a value is, the greater it is, even though it's numeric component '5' is not the largest.
Perhaps it makes sense to ask; in any case, the answer is that there is no greatest and no smallest integer. Whatever number you choose, you can always add one to get an even larger integer; or subtract one to get an even smaller one.
-2 is the greatest negative even integer.

It is an integer.
52 is the smallest even number greater than 50.
The smallest even number greater than 30,000 is 30,002.
That's correct - there is none. For any integer, you can subtract one to get an even smaller integer.
