How many prime numbers are there between 100 to 200

Answer:

Twenty-one or 21. There are 21 prime numbers in between the series of 100 and 200. In between the set of 1 to 100, there are 25 prime numbers. Thus, the set of 100 to 200 contains four fewer prime numbers in comparison to the set of 1 to 100.

101, 103, 107, 109, 113, 127, 131, 137, 139,149,151,157, 163, 167, 173, 179, 181, 191, 193, 197, 199.

These are the 21 prime numbers included in the set of numbers 100 to 200. The numbers come only with two factors, 1 and the number itself. Such numbers are known as prime numbers.

The prime numbers own various properties and some of them are mentioned below,

  • Each number that is greater than one gets divisible by at least one number that is prime in nature
  • All the prime numbers happen to be odd. The exception for this is digit 2. Only two is a number that is even in nature in the set of all prime numbers
