Re: Prime Number Challenges

Correct!

# 75 squared

# 76 cubed

# 77 (sum of digits of #75) cubed

# 78 (sum of #76 and #77) raise to the fifth power

# 79 (sum of digits of #78) squared

# 80 Is (sum of digits of #75-79) prime?

Re: Prime Number Challenges

I mean sum of digits, like 4+3+0+4+6+7+2+1. Anyways, nice try!

I'll write the items more user friendly.

83. What is 3 to the 5?
84. Multiply that answer by itself.
85. Multiply it by the nth prime (let n be the answer to #83).

I missed the sum part, sorry. The question you asked in the last post was clear enough, thanks.

Re: Prime Number Challenges

It's okay. Time to sharpen our minds!

#86. 1+2+4+8+1+6+3+2+6+4+1+2+8...+1+0+4+8+5+7+6
#87. 1+3+9+2+7+8+1+2+4+3+7+2+9...+3+8+7+4+2+0+4+8+9
#88. 1+5+2+5+1+2+5+6+2+5+3+1+2+5...+9+7+6+5+6+2+5

Note: Give me the pattern first before the sum. Both in separate posts.

#89. Sum of digits of #86-88.

After solving for the sum of 86, 87 and 88, respectively, answer this in a separate post, again.

Re: Prime Number Challenges

Hmm, since I'm too lazy to check...

#90. What is the square root of 121?

#91. It's obvious that it's prime. But, does the sum of its digits equal a prime number, too?

Re: Prime Number Challenges

Whoops, I forgot to specify:

#91. Does the sum of the digits of the answer in #90 prime?
