Question

A number only divisible by itself and one has inspired Joe Mac Anthony to title one of his works. What was the title of his work?
(a) Prime Target
(b) The Perfect Ten
(c) The Amicable
(d) The Pythagoras

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is (a) Prime Target.

Explanation:

• A prime number is any natural number greater than 1 that cannot be produced by multiplying two lesser natural numbers (or a prime). Any natural number greater than one that is not prime is a composite number.
• Prime numbers have sparked human interest since antiquity. Mathematicians are still searching for prime numbers with enigmatic qualities today. There are infinitely many prime numbers, according to a theorem on prime numbers put forward by Euclid.
• For instance, the only two ways to express the number 5 as a product are 1 and 5. This makes it prime. Each natural number has itself and the number one is a divisor.
• Example: Prime numbers only have themselves and one other factor. For instance, the first five prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, and 11.
