The second Mersenne number is 3.
A Mersenne number is a number that can be written as 2n - 1. A Mersenne prime is a Mersenne number that is a prime number. Here are some Mersenne primes: 22 - 1 = 3 23 - 1 = 7 25 - 1 = 31 27 - 1 = 127
A Mersenne number is a number of the form 2n-1. When this number is prime, it is known as a Mersenne prime.A Mersenne prime has the form 2n-1. For 2n-1 to be prime, n must also be prime. Examples are the Mersenne prime 7 (23 - 1 = 7) and the Mersenne prime 127 (27 - 1 = 127)
The first four Mersenne primes are 2, 3, 5, and 7.

Claude Mydorge, and Father Marin Mersenne
Marin Mersenne (1588-1648) was a monk in France who studied science, especially mathematics. He made some important discoveries in mathematics and musical theory. Some people suggest that his most important contribution to science and mathematics was his correspondence with other scholars. His work on prime numbers of the form 2n-1 resulted in their being known as Mersenne primes.
yeah im doing homework on it and im really not sure.
contribute to math
2 is the lowest Mersenne prime.
