There is no biggest prime number.The largest prime known at present is 243112609 - 1, a number with nearly 13 million decimal digits. It was verified by the Great Internet Mersenne Prime Search on August 23, 2008.For more information about record prime numbers, see the related link.Since we know there is no biggest number, there is no reason to believe there is such a restriction on Prime Numbers.
97 is a prime number so is 1 so the difference is 96
There is no biggest prime and the proof is quite simple. Suppose P were the biggest prime. Multiply together all the primes from 2 upto P. Call this number Q. Add 1 so that your final number is Q+1. Now, divide Q+1 by any prime. The prime will go into Q (by the way Q is defined) and so, when dividing Q+1, there will be a remainder of 1. So Q+1 cannot be divided by any prime fro 2 to P so Q+1 is itself a prime. And the way in which it was defined Q+1 is MUCH bigger than P.

No because the amount of numbers is infinite and there is no pattern to suggest that the amount of prime numbers is not infinite. * * * * * In fact, there is a relatively simple proof that there is no biggest prime. Suppose P were the biggest prime. Multiply together all the primes from 2 upto P. Call this number Q. Add 1 so that your final number is Q+1. Now, divide Q+1 by any prime. The prime will go into Q (by the way Q is defined) and so, when dividing Q+1, there will be a remainder of 1. So Q+1 cannot be divided by any prime fro 2 to P so Q+1 is itself a prime. And the way in which it was defined Q+1 is MUCH bigger than P.
