Yes. Try dividing the number by every prime number up to its square root. If none of these divide the number evenly then it is a prime.
Infinite. All prime numbers are odd with the exception of 2. Prime numbers are only divisible by 1 and themselves. That's the rule. The only prime number that is even is 2 since all other even numbers are divisible by 2 also. Hence all prime numbers are odd with the exception of 2.
I Dont know if this is for prime's or not but i can remember doing this thing. you add up the numbers of the digit ( 4+2+9=15) Then You see if 15 is a prime then you have the answer. ================================ 429 = 3*11*13. Hence, it is not a prime number. A comment on the first author's response: 37 is a prime number. The sum of 3 and 7 is 10. Ten is not a prime number. Hence the rule does not apply universally. The rule does not apply to 11, 13, ,17, or 19, all known prime numbers, either. I find the related link to be useful. ================================
11
It is only divisible by itself and one so therefore 31 is a prime number

Not EVERY rule, but most of them. Hence the saying, 'the exception that proves the rule.'

It can only be divided by 1 and 7.
True. By definition, a prime number is divisible by one and by itself. Also by definition, a perfect square has at least an additional pair of factors - it's square root. Therefore a prime number could never be a perfect square. One exception that might come to mind in this case is the number one. One however, is not considered a prime number, and thus does not conflict with this rule.
One. Twins are the exception, not the rule.
The duration of Exception to the Rule is 1.63 hours.
In French grammar, the rule is that there is an exception to every rule, except the rule that says there is an exception to every rule.- Rule about adjectives: they can take the mark of the plural or the mark of the feminine. That rule applies to color adjectives.- Exception: adjectives formed from animal names (saumon, tourterelle,...), mineral names (turquoise, anthracite,...), vegetal names, : marron (chestnut), noisette (hazelnut), orange, ect.. etc... These names do not vary when they are used as color adjectives (list in link)- Exception to the exceptions: rose, écarlate, fauve, pourpre... answer to the general rule.
Majority rule
Exception to the Rule was created on 1997-04-05.
Rules apply to everyone, so when someone says, "You're no exception" or "You're no exception to the rule", they mean "The rule applies to everyone, even to you."
