Can the product of two prime numbers be?

No, the product of two (or more) prime numbers cannot result in another prime number. By definition, a prime number is a number that is divisible by 1 or itself – the act of multiplying two or more primes together will always yield a number divisible by 1, itself and the prime numbers multiplied together to achieve it.

Can the product of two prime numbers be an odd number and even number or a prime number?

Yes. The product of two prime numbers will be an odd number unless at least one of the numbers is the prime number 2.

Can prime numbers be odd?

First, except for the number 2, all prime numbers are odd, since an even number is divisible by 2, which makes it composite. So, the distance between any two prime numbers in a row (called successive prime numbers) is at least 2.

Can the product of two prime numbers be prime If yes give an example?

No. The multiplication of two prime numbers becomes a ‘semiprime’. If only two smaller primes are used, even if square of only one, then the new number is called ‘semiprime’. Examples of semiprime: 6, 9, 21, 49, 139(13*13), 161(23*7).

Is the product of two prime numbers also a prime number give example and prove your answer?

Answer: A product of two primes can never be prime because the product of two primes p1 and p2 is always divisible by those two primes that are smaller than it and always bigger than 1 which is not prime by definition – and a prime is only divisible by 1 and itself.

Which prime number is odd except?

2
A natural number which has exactly two factors, i.e. 1 and the number itself, is a prime number. In simple words, if a number is only divisible by 1 and itself, then it is a prime number. Every prime number is an odd number except number 2.

Is a multiple of the prime number 2 also a prime number?

Any number greater than 2 which is a multiple of 2 is not a prime, since it has at least three divisors: 1 , 2 , and itself. (This means 2 is the only even prime.)

Are 27 and 72 a Coprime?

27 and 72 are not coprime (relatively, mutually prime) – if they have common prime factors, that is, if their greatest (highest) common factor (divisor), gcf, hcf, gcd, is not 1.

Is 2 a very odd prime number?

When you look at all the prime numbers all of them are odd except for 2. Therefore two is a very odd prime number. Most of the time. but there is one exception, which is the very first prime number. it is the only one that isn’t odd….2. an odd number will be the product only if both factors are odd.

Is the product of two even prime numbers always even?

The only factors of the product of a pair of prime numbers is the numbers themselves. If neither of these is 2, then 2 isn’t a factor, so the product is not even. So in this case yes. No. For instance 2 and 3 are prime numbers. 2 * 3 is 6, which is an even number, not odd. However, 2 is the only even prime number.

Is the product of 2 prime numbers always a composite number?

By definition a prime is a number whose factors are 1 and itself. The product of 2 primes must have two factors: Those 2 primes! Unless we define 1 is a prime, the product of 2 primes must be a composite number. ]

Is 2 an even or odd number?

2 is a prime number, and if you multiply it by anything else, than you will get an even number. One of the prime numbers is 2, which is EVEN. (All other prime numbers are ODD). If you multiply ODD with EVEN, you get EVEN…
