Question 995332
Every positive whole number n such that {{{n > 1}}} can be written in the form {{{a+b}}} where 'a' and 'b' are positive whole numbers (it is possible that a = b)


n = 1 is not able to be written into the form {{{a+b}}} because either 'a' or 'b' would have to be 0. But this contradicts their condition that {{{a > 0}}} and {{{b > 0}}}


So the final answer is <font color="red">B. 1</font> since there is only one number (the number 1 itself) that cannot be written as the sum of two positive integers.
