Question

The sum of two twin prime number is 60 .find the prime nos

Answer 1

Twin prime means what comes back to back...ok
For eg:- 17 & 19 , 3 & 5
It means they differ by 2
So let the number be x and x+2

According to question,
x + (x+2) = 60
2x + 2= 60
2x = 60-2
2x = 58
x = 29

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

$let \: the \: first \: prime \: no. \: be \: x \\ then \: second \: no. \: will \: be \: x + 2 \\ the \: sum \: of \: two \: twin \: prime \: no. = 60 \\ x + x + 2 = 60 \\ 2x = 58 \\ x = \frac{58}{2 } \\ x = 29 \\ first \: no. = 29 \\ second \: no. = x + 2 \\ = 29 + 2 \\ = 31 \\ ans. = 29 \: \: \: \: \: 31$
