Write the natural numbers from 2 to 12. What fraction of them are prime numbers?

Solution:

Natural numbers are a part of the number system, including all the positive integers from 1 to infinity

Prime numbers are the numbers that have only two factors, that are, 1 and the number itself

The natural numbers from 2 to 12 are 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.

The prime numbers from this set are 2, 3, 5, 7, and 11

So, 5/11 of the numbers are prime

Thus, the natural numbers from 2 to 12 are 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 5/11 of the numbers are prime

Write the natural numbers from 2 to 12. What fraction of them are prime numbers?

Summary:

The natural numbers from 2 to 12 are 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. The fraction of numbers that are prime is 5/11.
