Can you please tell me how to work the problem and not just give me the answer? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
Hi,
Note: Prime Numbers from 0 to 100
2, 3, 5, 7, 11, , 17, 19, , 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59,
61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97
a is smallest prime number greater than 21 and b is the
largest prime number less than 16, then ab
a * b = 23*13 = 299
