Fun with Prime Numbers

272=269+3

274=273+1

276=271+5

278=133+145

^^

271 / 3 = 91

145 / 5 = 29

133 / 7 = 19

===========

Correction...

276 = 269 + 7

278 = 151 + 127

===========

280 = 131 + 149

282 = 131 151

284 = 127 + 157

286 = 269 + 17

288 = 269 + 19

290 = 127 + 163

292 = 229 + 73

294 = 163 + 131

296 = 139 + 157

298 = 293 + 5

300 = 151 + 149

Poor Toobs, not many ppl in this thread

...gotta help

302 = 241 + 61

304 = 167 + 137

306 = 227 + 79

308 = 67 + 241

310 = 137 + 173

312 = 241 + 71

314 = 309 + 5

316 = 233 + 83

318 = 281 + 37

320 = 241 + 79

Uuhh.. will this help..

322 = 111 + 211

324 = 171 + 153

326 = 179 + 147

328 = 131 + 197

330 = 321 + 9

111, 171, 153, 147, 321 and 9 are not prime numbers

111, 171, 153, 147, 321 and 9 are not prime numbers

what are the rules that make a prime numbers?

Let me try these:

322 = 199 + 23

324 = 113 + 211

326 = 227 + 109

328 = 269 + 59

330 = 227 + 103

Do I get it now?

"In mathematics, a prime number (or a prime) is a natural number greater than 1 which has exactly two distinct natural number divisors: 1 and itself. An infinitude of prime numbers exists, as demonstrated by Euclid around 300 BC. The first thirty prime numbers are:

2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97, 101, 103, 107, 109, 113. "

Thanks Dajana.. you're the greatest..

Good job ladies! This is exciting news to see that you are being excited by math!

332 = 313 + 19

334 = 317 + 17

336 = 331 + 5

338 = 331 + 7

340 = 337 + 3

Oh I forgot about this thread And I have really, really important math test today

Good luck! ^_^

PS. do you happen to know of any online lectures on computer math... specifically on IEEE 754 notation?

342 = 337 + 5

344 = 337 + 7

346 = 317 + 29

348 = 317 + 31

350 = 331 + 19

352 = 345 + 7

354 = 345 + 9

356 = 351 + 5

358 = 351 + 7

360 = 351 + 9
