Solution:

To solve this question, we need to consider a few odd/even rules.

1) (even + even) or (odd + odd) = even

2) even + odd = odd

3) (even x even) or (even x odd) = even (Note that an even integer times any integer, whether even or odd, will yield an even answer for the product.)

4) odd x odd = odd

Doing a quick scan of our answer choices allows us to select C as the correct option. Regardless whether n is even or odd, 2 (which is even) times any integer will always be even.

Answer: C
