If I have:

create table Mytable
parallel (degree 4)
as 
select /*+ parallel (tab, 4) */
  tab.start_dt,
  tab.end_dt
FROM 
  invoice tab;

How many processors does this use? How does this actually execute??

Do you really mean processors or processes??

I guess, now, I mean 'processes'...
I've gone through the link. But there was nothing there that somehow discusses a kind of code wherein there are hints both in CREATE and SELECT, does it call for 8 processes or 4?

create table Mytable
parallel (degree 4)
as 
select /*+ parallel (tab, 4) */
  tab.start_dt,
  tab.end_dt
FROM 
  invoice tab;

or how about:

INSERT /*+ parallel (a, 3) */
  INTO tabA a
SELECT /*+ parallel (b, 3) */
       *
  FROM tabB b;
