\n" );
document.write( "Hi,
\n" );
document.write( "1) An even number is any integer divisible by 2. 
\n" );
document.write( "Let 2n +1  and 2k + 1 represent two odd numbers
\n" );
document.write( " (2n + 1) + (2k + 1) = 2(n+k+1) 
\n" );
document.write( "Letting N = (n+k+1)
\n" );
document.write( " 2n + 1 + 2k + 1 = 2N  sum is an even number as the integer is divisible by 2
\n" );
document.write( "Resulting Number is a number divisible by 2, therefore even
\n" );
document.write( "2) Let 2n  and 2k represent two even numbers
\n" );
document.write( "  2n*2k = 4(nk) Resulting Number is divisible by 4 \n" );
document.write( "

\n" );
