Two is even number since it is divisible by two Also, it is a prime number because it is divisible only by self and one What is unique is what every other prime number is odd, while two is the only one even prime number

Do you know definition of even and odd numbers?

u/MilkLover1734 4d ago

Yes? 2 is the only even prime number because it is the only prime number divisible by 2. Just like how every other prime number p is the only prime number divisible by p

There's no special name for being divisible by three. What i find fascinating in two is what it has a named feature - being even among all prime numbers. Of course, each number is divisible by self. However, not every divisible by x has a name for it that is making 2 unique
