Three Digit Travail (Posted on 2014-12-26) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Let us consider a duodecimal prime number which when re-interpreted as a base ten positive integer is a composite number. As an example, (45)12 is equal to (53)10 and therefore a prime number. However, (45)10 is evidently a composite number.

Determine the probability an integer chosen at random from (100)12 to (BBB)12 inclusively is a prime number in the duodecimal system, but is composite when re-interpreted as a base ten number.
