300 (number) nontotient. 315 = 3 × 5 × 7. 315 is a Harshad number 316 = 2 × 79. 316 is a centered triangular number and a centered heptagonal number 317 is a prime number, Eisenstein prime with no imaginary part, Chen prime, and a strictly non-palindromic number. 317 is also shorthand for the LM317 adjustable regulator chip. It is also the area code for the Indianapolis region. 318 = 2 × 3 × 53. It is a sphenic number, nontotient, and the sum of twelve consecutive primes (7 + 11 + 13 + 17 + 19 + 23 + 29
Prime number a quadratic polynomial that (for integer arguments) is prime infinitely often. Euler's proof that there are infinitely many primes considers the sums of reciprocals of primes, Euler showed that, for any arbitrary real number formula_22, there exists a prime formula_20 for which this sum is bigger than formula_22. This shows that there are infinitely many primes, because if there were finitely many primes the sum would reach its maximum value at the biggest prime rather than growing past every formula_22. The growth rate of this sum is described more precisely by Mertens' second theorem. For comparison, the sum does not
