Problem
Let be the smallest nonprime integoobs greater than
with no prime factor less than
. Then
Solution
To solve the problem, you would have to find the smallest prime number greater than ten: eleven. So, the smallest number with eleven as prime factorization and greater than 100 = 11^2 (i.e. 121). Which is in .
