Is there a pattern behind prime numbers?

Answer:

There is a rule on how we find prime numbers.

Explanation:

A clear rule determines exactly what makes a prime: it's a whole number that can't be exactly divided by anything except 1 and itself. But there's no discernible pattern in the occurrence of the primes.That's because, after the number 5, there are only four possibilities — 1, 3, 7, and 9 — for prime last digits
