Life is too serious not to have a sense of humor.

Hadley-

This is another question that I am pretty clueless about. 2 is the only even prime.

A prime number is only divisible by itself and one.

Get back with me if you think that I can give you any help. WTQ

Hi,
That means that the largest number you'll have to check is 97..... in other words: Check all the numbers from 1 (inc) to 97 to identify the prime numbers in that list (1,2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23......etc...... 73,79, 83,89,97) 
Best regards,
