There is no formula that will generate all the prime numbers less than or equal to 500.

Perhaps the "next best thing" is that there are some formulas that will generate prime numbers for certain values that are plugged in to the formula, but not necessarily all the prime numbers.

For example, the formula n2 - n + 41 will generate prime numbers for all values of n from 0 to 40, but not for all values greater than or equal to 41. But even for values of n that are less than or equal to 40, while the formula will result in a Prime number, it doesn't generate all the prime numbers. The first few prime numbers generated by this formula (for n = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) are 41, 41, 43, 47, 53, and 61. But many prime numbers get "skipped over" by using this, or any other, formula.

When rounding to the nearest thousand what is the greatest number that rounds to 5000?

Half of 1000 is 500, so numbers in the range 5000 ± 500 round to 5000 to the nearest 1000 EXCEPT that numbers exactly half way round up. ie numbers greater than or equal to 5000 - 500 = 4500 and less than 5000 + 500 = 5500 will round to 5000 to the nearest 1000. So the largest whole number that rounds to 5000 to the nearest 1000 is 5500 - 1 = 5499.
