Fortunate number numbers are prime. Fortunate number A Fortunate number, named after Reo Fortune, is the smallest integer "m" > 1 such that, for a given positive integer "n", "p"# + "m" is a prime number, where the primorial "p"# is the product of the first "n" prime numbers. For example, to find the seventh Fortunate number, one would first calculate the product of the first seven primes (2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13 and 17), which is 510510. Adding 2 to that gives another even number, while adding 3 would give another multiple of 3. One would similarly rule out the
Prime number each of these factors, but formula_45 has a remainder of one when divided by any of the prime numbers in the given list, so none of the prime factors of formula_45 can be in the given list. Because there is no finite list of all the primes, there must be infinitely many primes. The numbers formed by adding one to the products of the smallest primes are called Euclid numbers. The first five of them are prime, but the sixth, is a composite number. There is no known efficient formula for primes. For example, there is no non-constant polynomial, even
