1. **List all factors of 60:**  
 The factors of $$ 60 $$ are:  
 $$
 1,\; 2,\; 3,\; 4,\; 5,\; 6,\; 10,\; 12,\; 15,\; 20,\; 30,\; 60
 $$

2. **Identify the even factors:**  
 The even factors are those divisible by $$ 2 $$:  
 $$
 2,\; 4,\; 6,\; 10,\; 12,\; 20,\; 30,\; 60
 $$

3. **Select the compound (composite) even factors:**  
 A compound (composite) number is an integer greater than $$ 1 $$ that has more than two positive divisors. Notice that $$ 2 $$ is a prime number, so we exclude it.  
 The remaining even factors are:  
 $$
 4,\; 6,\; 10,\; 12,\; 20,\; 30,\; 60
 ]

Thus, the even, compound factors of $$ 60 $$ are:  
\[
4,\; 6,\; 10,\; 12,\; 20,\; 30,\; 60
