Option A) and Option B) is the correct answer.
To Find:
Two consecutive numbers that are semi-prime.
Solution:
A semi-prime is a number that is exact multiple of only two prime numbers.
A)
20 = 2×2×5
21= 3×7
Here both 20 and 21 are products of only two prime numbers. Therefore they are semi-prime numbers.
B) 14= 2×7
15 = 3× 5
Here both 14 and 15 are products of only two prime numbers. Therefore they are semi-prime numbers.
C) 15=3×4
16 = 2×2×2×2
Here, 16 is a product of only one prime number. Hence, it is not a semi-prime number.
D) 22 = 2×11
23= 23×1
Here, 23 is a multiple of 1 and itself. Hence it is not a semi-prime number.
Therefore, Option A) and Option B) is the correct answer.
