+385 Let $p$ be a prime number between 40 and 60. What is the probability that $p + 12$ is also a prime number? Express your answer as a common fraction.
+934 Thanks!
So of the 5 primes given in the other question, 41+12= 53, 47+12= 59, and 59+12= 71. Three out of the five primes when added to 12 equal another prime. So your answer is 3/5.
Hope it helps!
