Do twin primes have one composite number between them?

No, twin primes are pairs of prime numbers that have only one number between them which is a composite number. For example, (3, 5) and (11, 13) are twin prime pairs with the composite number 4 and 12 respectively between them.


What is the difference between a factor string and prime factorization?

A factor string consists of any factors (except 1) that multiply to equal the number. Prime factorization consists of only prime numbers that multiply to equal the number. In the case where the factors of the original number consists only of primes, there is no difference.

No. Only integers can be primes (two close by are 11 and 13)


Is the number 23 the only prime number that has a even number in it?

No, there is an infinite number of primes containing an even number.


What is a product of two primes less than 40 whose difference is 34?

117The smallest prime is 2. In order for the difference between two primes to be 34, the other prime has to be at least 36.Between 36 and 40 (the max allowed), only one prime number exists: 37In order for the difference to be 34, the first prime number must therefore be 71 or 3.Since 71 is larger than 40, it can be excluded, leaving you with 3 instead.So the two numbers/primes less than 40 are 37 and 3. Their difference is 34. And their product is 117

What 2 prime numbers make 123?

There is no pair of prime numbers that sum to 123.Proof :Any two odd primes will sum to an even number, thus excluding 123 which is odd.Since 2 is the only even prime, the only possible solution is 2 + 121 = 123.But, 121 is not prime because it is 11 x 11.A similar proof shows that there is no pair of primes whose difference is 123.There are two primes that multiply to 123 : - 3 and 41.


What is the difference of mersenne prime and a prime number?

A prime number has only two factors, 1 and itself. A Mersenne prime is a prime number derived from the algorithm 2n - 1. For example, 23 - 1 = 7 and 7 is a prime number so 3 is a Mersenne prime. Similarly 27 - 1 = 127 and 127 is a prime number so 7 is a Mersenne prime. There are 47 known Mersenne primes, the highest being 43,112,609.
