The product of the first 3 prime numbers is 1 less than the sum of the next 3 prime numbers.

First we need to multiply the first 3 prime numbers together. The first 3 prime numbers are 2, 3, and 5.

2 * 3 * 5 = 30.

Next we need to add the next 3 prime numbers. The next 3 prime numbers are 7, 11, and 13.

7 + 11 + 13 = 31

Now we can subtract our first total from our second.

31 - 30 = 1
