Does two prime numbers always add up to an even number?
No, they do not. If one of the prime numbers is 2, you will have an odd number.
If you add two prime numbers together what do you get?
You can get another prime (only if one of the numbers added is 2), for example, 101 + 2 = 103. If you add together two odd prime numbers, you will get an even number, which will not be a prime number. (An even number is a number that is divisible by 2; if such a number is greater than 2, it is not a prime number.)
If you add or subtract using only prime numbers is the answer always a prime number?
No, as all prime numbers are odd, excluding 2, and when you add two odd numbers you get an even number. This even number can't be a prime number as it will be divisible by 2. 101 and 31 are both prime, but 101+31 is 132.
What prime numbers add up two 29 from 10?
There are no prime numbers greater than 10 that add up to 29. Since all prime numbers greater than 2 are odd numbers, no two prime numbers greater than 2 can have an even number for their sum.
What three numbers add up to a prime number?
if you mean what three prime numbers add up to a prime number then the answer is : 5 + 7 + 11 = 23
What 2 prime numbers add together to make 91?
Two is the only even prime number. When you add an odd number to another odd number, you get an even number. When you add an even number to an odd number, you get an odd number. 91 is an odd number, therefore the answer is 2 and 89.

What even number cannot be formed by two prime numbers?
You can not add two positive prime numbers and get zero.
What 2 prime numbers add up to 27?
29
What prime numbers add up two 29 from 10?
There are no prime numbers greater than 10 that add up to 29. Since all prime numbers greater than 2 are odd numbers, no two prime numbers greater than 2 can have an even number for their sum.

Is it true that if you add 2 prime numbers you always get an even number?
As long as one of the numbers isn't 2, adding any two prime numbers results in an even number. Why? 1.) Adding any two odd numbers gives an even number, 2.) adding an odd and an even gives an odd, and 3.) all primes are odd, except for 2.
What numbers have 2 as their prime factorization?
All even numbers are multiples of 2, so they have 2 in their prime factorization. No odd numbers are divisible by 2, so no add number has 2 in its prime factorization.
How many ways can the whole number 50 be expressed as the sum of three different prime numbers?
Look at the first 2 of these prime numbers. They cannot be even for then they would be divisible by 2, so not prime. Add them together. Two odd numbers added together make an even. Subtract this even number from 50 (also even) so the third number must be even. There is no way of adding 3 prime numbers together to make an even number.
Can you add 6 prime numbers and get a composite number?
As long as 2 is not one of the primes that you are adding, then I can guarantee that you will get a composite. 2 is the only even prime number. Any time you add two odd numbers together, you will get an even number (which is not prime). So if you add them in pairs, you will have three even numbers, which added together result in an even number, so it is composite. If you throw in 2 as one of the primes that you're adding, then your result is odd, and I don't know what else to say about your result.
