'P' is the smallest positive integer such that every positive integer N greater than 'P' can be written as a sum of two composite numbers. Then:
Let us examine each
option.
Option A ⟶p=3
∴p+1=4=2+2=1+3⇒ They are not composite
numbers.
∴ Option A is incorrect.
Option B ⟶p=6
∴p+1=7=1+6=2+5=3+4
⇒ none of the additive pairs is sum of composite numbers.
∴ Option B is incorrect.
Option C ⟶p=6
∴p+1=11=1+10=2+9=3+8=4+7=5+6
⇒ none of the additive pairs is sum of composite numbers.
∴ Option C is incorrect.
Option D ⟶p=11
∴p+1=12=1+11=2+10=3+9=4+8=5+7=6+6
Here, Both the additive pair (4,8) and (6,6) are composite
numbers.
∴ Option D is Correct.
