Some of the following integers are prime. Select all the prime integers in the list.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
A prime number is a number only divisble by 1 and itself.
Let's take a look at the numbers we have.
First, we have 1. It is only divisble by 1 and itself, but it only has one true factor since 1=1∗1, so it is not consdered prime.
Next, we have 2. It is divisble as 2=2∗1, so it is prime.
Going through the list, 3=(3∗1),5=(5∗1),7=(1∗7) are all prime numbers.
However, 4=(2∗2),6=(2∗3),8=(2∗4),9=(3∗3),10=(2∗5)are all composite numbers.
So our final answer is 2,3,5,7
Thanks! :)
