Question

Which pair represents twin prime numbers?

Options

•  (2, 4)

• (5, 7)

• (6, 8)

• (10, 12)

Answer 1

(5, 7)

Explanation:

Twin primes are two prime numbers with a difference of 2.

In the pair (5, 7), both are prime numbers, and 7 − 5 = 2.

Other pairs either contain composite numbers or lack the difference of 2.
