What are the next 3 prime numbers after 41?
The next three primes greater than 41 are 43, 47, and 53.
Why are prime number considered the building blocks of the natural numbers?
All natural numbers greater than 1 the product of 1 and one or more primes.
What is the square of the sum of two primes?
There is no particular characteristic that is common to such numbers other than they are positive integers greater than or equal to 4.
Prove that if every even natural number greater than 2 is the sum of two primes then every odd natural number greater than 5 is the sum of three primes?
Given an arbitrary odd natural number greater than five, x, let y = x - 3, then y is an even number greater than 2. By assumption we have that y is the sum of two primes, say y1 and y2, but then x = y1 + y2 + 3 (which is the sum of three primes).
How do you find Prime number greater than 20 but less than 25?
There are only 3 numbers to test if they are prime, that isn't very hard. You can also use the list of 1000 smallest primes.
Which prime numbers are greater than 100?
There are an infinite number of primes greater than any number given.
What two numbers have no common factors greater than one?
They are called co-primes.
What is the longest number string that only consists of prime numbers?
The longest string of consecutive numbers that are primes is two digits long, consisting of 2 and 3 only. There are no other consecutive numbers that are primes because no even numbers greater than 2 are primes.
Is 52 a composite or prime noumber?
52 is composite. No even numbers greater than 2 are primes.
Can an even number greater than 4 be written as the sum of two prime numbers if you use 2 as one of the primes?
No.
What are the next 3 prime numbers after 41?
The next three primes greater than 41 are 43, 47, and 53.
Why are prime number considered the building blocks of the natural numbers?
All natural numbers greater than 1 the product of 1 and one or more primes.
Is there a pattern in the prime and composite numbers between 1 to 100?
There are some patterns, but none that can help you determine, in all cases, whether the number is a prime or not.For example: * All primes except 2 are odd numbers. However, not all odd numbers are primes. * All primes greater than 3 are of the form 6n - 1, or 6n + 1. However, not all numbers of this form are primes.
What is the square of the sum of two primes?
There is no particular characteristic that is common to such numbers other than they are positive integers greater than or equal to 4.
How many of the prime numbers between 10 and 20 can be written as the sum of two primes?
All prime numbers greater than 2 are odd numbers. For an odd prime to be written as the sum of two primes, one of the primes must be 2 because two odd primes will produce an even sum. 11 cannot be written as the sum of two primes. 13 = 2 + 11. 17 cannot be written as the sum of two primes. 19 = 2 + 17.
Two consecutive prime numbers which differ by 2 are said to be twin primes while two numbers whose hCF is 1 are called co-primes how many pairs of co-primes are between 1 and 50?
Any number greater than one can be co-prime. I guess the answer is 49.
Can a pair of numbers greater than a 100 have the same greatest common factor as a pair of numbers under 100?
Yes. Simple example: pick 2 primes greater than 100 and 2 less than 100. For each pair, GCF = 1
