N is a positive integer. If you list the positive integers in rows of N such that the first row contains 1 to N, the second row contains N+1 to 2*N, and so on, then the first row with no prime is immediately followed by another row with no prime. What is N?
(In reply to
re(2): My solution by Ady TZIDON)
I don't know about "many", but certainly some, especially as you need a gap twice as big, and positioned appropriately, as the gap sought for a double row.
Just see the double-row gaps I previously listed:
gap ranges
17 15692 15708 15709 15725
18 16147 16164 16165 16182
21 19615 19635 19636 19656
22 25477 25498 25499 25520
25 31401 31425 31426 31450
27 31402 31428 31429 31455
31 31404 31434 31435 31465
39 155923 155961 155962 156000
41 155924 155964 155965 156005
42 360655 360696 360697 360738
47 370267 370313 370314 370360
48 370273 370320 370321 370368
that were disqualified because there were gaps that long before, that were only single-row, not double-row.
Just to take at random, the gap of 22 from the above list. Single rows of gap 22 far exceed double such rows:
