If n=4p where p is a prime number greater than 2, how many different positive even divisors does n have, WITHOUT N VALUE?
Answers.
A) 1
B) 2
C) 3
D) 4
E) 5
We're told that N = 4P and that P is a prime number greater than 2. Let's TEST P = 3; so N = 12   The question now asks how many DIFFERENT positive EVEN divisors does 12 have, including 12?   12:   1,12   2,6   3,4   How many of these divisors are EVEN? 2, 4, 6, …..3 even divisors.   ANSWER:3
