which of the following numbers are prime numbers 39 , 87 , 51, 31?​

prime numbers

31

Remember that

Prime numbers are numbers that have only 2 factors: 1 and themselves

51 is not a prime number

because

is a composite number and can be factored by any of the following numbers: 1, 3, 17, 51

39 is not a prime number because can be evenly divided by 1, 3, 13 and 39

87 is not a prime number because 3 and 29 as the prime factors of 87

therefore

answer is

31
