Hey there!! :D




Prime Number: Is a natural number greater than 1 that cannot be formed by multiplying two smaller natural numbers.




If you list out all of the prime numbers between 8 and 60 and divide each one by 6, you will notice that the remainder ends with either 1or 5 and not 2.



So your answer would be A) 0



Hope this helps!!
