There are no prime numbers that equal 14. In fact, in the entire world of
mathematics, there is only one single number that equals 14. The number
is . . . . . . . . . . . . (wait for it) . . . . . . . . . . . . . (here it comes) . . . . . . . . . 14.
And that number is not a prime one.

It's possible to multiply some prime numbers and produce 14 :

Like this . . . . . . . . . . 2 x 7 = 14

It's possible to add some prime numbers and produce 14 :

Like this . . . . . . . . . . 3 + 11 = 14
or 7 + 7 = 14

It's possible to subtract some prime numbers and produce 14 :

Like this . . . . . . . . . . 17 - 3 = 14
or 19 - 5 = 14
or 31 - 17 = 14 .

But it's not possible to divide any prime numbers and produce 14,
and there's no single prime number that's equal to 14.
