Answer:
60 can be expressed as the sum of 29 and 31 odd prime numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Prime numbers: The numbers which are divisible by itself and 1 are called the prime numbers.
And the prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 23, 29, 31, 41, .....
The only even prime number series is "2", and the remaining prime numbers are odd
Another fact that can be told about prime numbers is the prime numbers are always next to or behind the number which is divisible by 4 (exception "2")
So, 60 can be expressed as sum of 29 and 31 which are the numbers of prime number series.
i.e. 29 + 31 = 60.
