To identify a prime number between 40 and 50, you need to check each number within that range and determine if it is divisible by any number other than 1 and itself.
Let's analyze each number in the given range:
45: To check if 45 is prime, we need to test division by numbers other than 1 and itself. Trying 3, we find that 45 divided by 3 equals 15, so it is not prime.
46: Testing division by 2, we find that 46 divided by 2 equals 23, so it is not prime.
49: Trying division by 7, we find that 49 divided by 7 equals 7, so it is not prime.
41: To check if 41 is prime, we need to test division by numbers other than 1 and itself. Trying several numbers, we do not find any that divide evenly into 41, so it is prime.
Therefore, the prime number between 40 and 50 is 41.
To identify a prime number between 40 and 50, we need to determine which numbers in that range are not divisible by any other number except 1 and itself.
Let's analyze the numbers:
45 is not a prime number because it is divisible by 3 and 5.
46 is not a prime number because it is divisible by 2 and 23.
49 is not a prime number because it is divisible by 7 and 49.
41 is a prime number because it is not divisible by any other number except 1 and itself.
Therefore, the prime number between 40 and 50 is 41.
