What one-digit number is the product of two consecutive prime numbers?
There are only two prime numbers that are consecutive numbers, 2 and 3. Their product is 2 x 3 = 6. The first prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, and 7 and the only two consecutive prime numbers whose product is a single digit are 2 and 3. (The next two consecutive prime numbers, 3 and 5, have a two-digit product.)
When two different prime numbers are multiplied can the product be a negative integer?
Since prime numbers are defined as positive integers, any product of prime numbers will be positive.
Is it true that the LCM of 2 numbers is the product of the 2 numbers?
Only if the numbers are co-prime.
What is the LCM of two prime numbers?
The Least Common Multiple (LCM) of two prime numbers is the product of the two prime numbers. This is because prime numbers only have themselves and 1 as factors, so their LCM is simply their product.
Can 28 be a product of prime numbers?
No, because 28 can only be calculated as a product in the following ways: 1 x 28 2 x 14 4 x 7 In the above cases, 28, 14 and 4 are all non-prime numbers, which means that 28 cannot be a product of 2 prime numbers alone.
