Which of the following are Twin primes?
21 , 23
59 , 61
61 , 63
67 , 69
Given :
The given pairs of numbers are, [21,23] , [59,61] , [61,63] , [67,69]
To find :
We have to find which are win primes among the given pairs of numbers.
Solution :
Twin Primes:
Two prime numbers whose difference is two are called twin primes.
(21,23) are twin primes, since the difference between the two numbers $23 – 21 =2$.
(59,61) are twin primes, since the difference between the two numbers $61 – 59 = 2$.
63 is not a prime number.
69 is not a prime number.
Therefore, [21,23] and [59,61] are twin primes.
