Given,

To Find,

The two prime numbers.

Solution,

Here, given that

Here, given prime numbers sum = 60.

Whichever number divisible by only 1 and that number belongs to the prime number group.

Let's take,

one prime number = p

Another prime number =  p+2.

So, the sum of these two prime numbers

S = p + p + 2

S= 60

60 = p + p + 2

60 = 2p + 2

2p = 60 - 2

2p = 58

p = 58 / 2

p = 29

p+2 = 29+2

= 31.

Hence two prime numbers, whose sum of 60 is 29 and 31.
