2003
2000 is, in fact, not a prime number, as it is divisible by 2.
2049.99... (recurring) and 1950
You must look for the square of a prime number. Square root of 2000 is about 44.7, so you must look for the largest prime number below that.
no multiple of 2 so composite
If looking for a percentage answer, you subtract the smallest number from the largest number and the divide the difference by the largest number. Ex: $2000 - $1560 = $440 / $2000 = 22% Variance. Check your work: $2000 x 22% = $440.
Please note that there cannot be a largest prime number; Euclid proved that about 2000 years ago. As to the largest known prime number, according to the Wikipedia, as of January 2014, the largest known prime number is 2 to the power 57,885,161 − 1, a number with 17,425,170 digits. This number was found to be a prime in January 2013.
It is impossible to list all the prime numbers: it has been proven (2000 years ago) that there are infinitely many. In other words, there is no last prime number.
There are 800 such numbers.

Do a search on Google, for "prime numbers" table, or "prime numbers" list, and you will surely find something.I cannot tell precisely without looking up a table or doing some longish calculus but as a gross estimatation there should be about this many prime numbers between 1000 and 2000:2000 / ln(2000) - 1000 / ln(1000) =~ 263 - 144 = 119Actual number of primes between 1000 and 2000 should be a little above 119(in the range [140, 160] i think)
The answer to the smallest possible value of the sum of all the digits is 1. the number can either be 100 or 1000 - either way the sum is still one.
Yes, in fact, there is no last prime number - the set of prime numbers is infinite. The proof was already known 2000 years ago: If you assume that there is a last prime number, multiply all prime numbers up to that "last prime number". Then add one. The result is either a prime number itself, or it is composed of factors, none of which is one of the prime numbers you multiplied (because of the added 1). Thus, the original assumption (that there is a last prime number) has to be false. Example: The first 3 prime numbers are 2, 3, 5. If you multiply them, you get 30. Add one to the result, and you get 31. This number isn't divisible by 2, by 3, nor by 5. It happens to be a prime, but this isn't always so.
