Consecutive prime numbers are two prime numbers that are next to each other, with no other prime numbers in between. For example, 3 and 5 are consecutive prime numbers.
The first two consecutive prime numbers that have a difference of 20 are the numbers 887 and 907.
If you mean consecutive numbers that are prime? than the answer is 2,3 are consecutive numbers which are prime. except for this pair it is impossible for consecutive numbers to be prime because every second number is multiple of 2
Yes, 2 and 3 are consecutive prime numbers.
2 and 3 are the only consecutive prime numbers.

No other prime numbers are consecutive because there aren't any other even prime numbers.
Yes.Additional Information:If you have two consecutive numbers, one of them will be an odd number and the other will be an even number. Since even numbers are divisible by 2, the only even prime number is 2. If two consecutive numbers are prime, the even number must be 2. So, because 1 is not a prime number, the only time that two consecutive numbers can be prime is in the case of 2 and 3.
Yes, 2 and 3 are consecutive prime numbers.
2 and 3 are the only consecutive prime numbers.
Basically, composite numbers are the non-prime numbers. Take a table of prime numbers, and look for any two prime numbers, one after the other, that have a difference greater than 2. Any numbers in between are consecutive composite numbers. For example, the next prime number after 13 is 17; that makes 14, 15, and 16 three consecutive non-primes, i.e., composite numbers.
17 is the only prime number that is the sum of four consecutive prime numbers. 2 + 3 + 5 + 7 = 17
My guess is you're talking about prime numbers with a prime gap of two.
The only prime numbers with a difference of 1 are the numbers 2 and 3. More consecutive numbers are not possible, since one of the two would have to be even - and an even number is divisible by 2, and therefore not a prime number (2, of course, is a prime number, but larger even numbers are not).The most you can expect with larger prime numbers is a difference of 2. Very large such "prime twins" are known; a few are 3 and 5; 101 and 103, but much larger ones are known, as well. It is not yet known whether there are an infinite number of twin primes.The only prime numbers with a difference of 1 are the numbers 2 and 3.

The numbers 2 and 3 are consecutive prime numbers. Are there other pairs of prime numbers which are consecutive numbers?
