...Give an example that proves the conjecture or a counter example.
Chose any prime number and double.
2, 3, 5, 7...
2 * 2 = 4 which is not a prime number
3 * 2 = 6 which is not a prime number
Etc.
Why?
Any prime number multiplied by an even number (as it is doubled), will result in an even number. Therefore, none of the results will be odd and can't be prime - there are no even prime numbers except 2.
