Write all the prime numbers between 30 and 40.
Prime numbers, are numbers that only have 2 factors, specifically 1, and the number itself, hence if the number have more than 2 factors, then it can be categorized as a composite number.
After 30, we have 31, which has only 2 factors, 31 and 1, therefore it is considered to be a prime number. After 31, we have 32, up until 36, where the numbers have more than 2 factors, therefore they are composite. After 36 we have 37 which only have 2 factors, hence it is classified to be a prime number. After 37 we have 38 up until 40, and they have more than 2 factors.
Final answer:
31 and 37
