In Number Theory, there is a special name for pairs of prime numbers that have a very specific relationship with each other. Let's find out what they are called.
Name: Twin Primes.
Definition: Two prime numbers with a difference of exactly 2.
Example: (3,5), (11,13), (17,19), (41,43).
The Twin Prime Conjecture: Still unproven — are there infinitely many twin primes?
Two prime numbers that differ from each other by exactly 2 are called Twin Primes.
Examples of Twin Prime pairs:
One of the greatest unsolved problems in mathematics is the Twin Prime Conjecture. It states that there are infinitely many twin prime pairs. Mathematicians believe this is true, but it has never been proven completely. The largest known twin prime pair as of recent research contains hundreds of thousands of digits!
Two prime numbers that differ by 2 are called Twin Primes. Examples include (3,5), (11,13), and (17,19).
