Answer:

The sum of two even numbers is even and greater than the addends.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 2n and 2m be two even numbers.

The sum of these numbers is

[tex]2n+2m[/tex]

Use distributive property:

[tex]2(n+m)[/tex]

This number is even because 2 is its factor.

Note that

[tex]2n+2m>2n\\ \\2n+2m>2m[/tex]

Thus, correct option is:

The sum of two even numbers is even and greater than the addends.
