Why are all prime numbers odd except 2?<span>But if a number is divisible only by itself and by 1, then it is prime. So, because allthe other even numbers are divisible by themselves, by 1, and by 2, they are allcomposite (just as all the positive multiples of 3, except 3, itself, are composite).hope it helps</span>

Because if it was even, then it would be divisble by 2 which makes it not prime

Steven has $25 dollars to spend. He spent $10.81, including tax, to buy a new DVD. He needs to save $10.00 but he wants to buy a
Yuliya22 [10]

(25 - 10.81) - 1.38p = 10

p = package of peanuts  

25 - 10.81 = 14.19

14.19 - 1.38p = 10

Subtract 14.19 from each side

10 - 14.19 = -4.19

-1.38p = -4.19

Divide both sides by -1.38

p = 3 (roughly, but because you can only buy the whole package, this is the amount you can buy)

He can buy a maximum of 3 packages of peanuts.
