A Prime number is such that it is divisible by only itself and one. Including 1 as a prime number would violate the fundamental theory of arithmetic, so in modern mathematics it is excluded. Two is a prime because it is divisible by only two and one. All the other even numbers are not prime because they are all divisible by two.

No, the number 2 is the only even prime number. All other even numbers (4, 6, 8, etc.) are divisible by 2. (This is due to the definition of an even number as divisible by 2.) Thus, 2 is the only even number that can still be prime - the rest have at least one divisor other than 1 and themselves.

NO!!!

Because any even number has a factor of '2', hence it is a compound number. That is it will divide by '2'.

All Prime number are Odd, but not all Odd numbers are Prime numbers.

There is no other even prime number because any other even number would be able to at least be divided by two.

Example:

8 can be divided by two and four

Sadly, there is not. If you see a number that is even (except 2) you will know it is a composite that is divisible by 2
