Answers
Answer:
Those numbers with only two factors, i.e., 1 and the number itself, are known as prime numbers.
Examples: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 and 13
The prime numbers between 1 and 30 are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23 and 29.
Answer:
three numbers for a common remainder and find the appropriate divisor. The remainders must obviously be an odd number.
The first number that comes to mind as a possible remainder is 1, 43–1 = 42, 91–1 = 90, 183–1 = 182. We see that 42, 90 and 182 are all divisible by 2,
The next number as a possible remainder is 3. So 43–3 = 40, 91–3 = 88, 183–3 = 180. All these 3 numbers are divisible by 4.
The last number as a possible remainder is 41. So 43–41 = 2, 91–41 = 50, 183–41 = 142. All these 3 numbers are divisible by 2. But 2 is smaller than 4 and so not acceptable.
