If the numerator is 1, then 2 times 1 is 2. 2 minus 5 is -3 for the denominator which is not greater than 1. Not valid.

If the numerator is 3, then 2 times 3 is 6. 6 minus 5 is 1 which is not greater than 3 and is not prime. Not valid.

If the numerator is 5, then 2 times 5 is 10. 10 minus 5 is 5 which is not greater than 5. Not valid.

If the numerator is 7, then 2 times 7 is 14. 14 minus 5 is 9 which is not prime. Not valid.

If the numerator is 9, then 2 times 9 is 18. 18 minus 5 is 13. 13 is greater than 9 and is prime. Valid.
