"content": "Here's a curious fact: 73939133 is the largest base-10 prime number with the fascinating property that if you take one or more digits off the right end, the resulting numbers are all prime. Said another way: 73939133 is largest base-10 right-truncatable prime [1,2,5].\n\nApparently there are 83 base-10 right-truncatable primes [3,4].\n\nReferences\n---------------\n[1] \"Truncatable prime\", https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncatable_prime\n\n[2] \" Right-truncatable primes: every prefix is prime\", https://oeis.org/A024770\n\n[3] \"Truncatable Prime\", https://mathworld.wolfram.com/TruncatablePrime.html\n\n[4] \"right-truncatable prime\", https://t5k.org/glossary/page.php?sort=RightTruncatablePrime\n\n[5] \"On Truncatable Primes\", https://www.ams.org/journals/mcom/1977-31-137/S0025-5718-1977-0427213-2/S0025-5718-1977-0427213-2.pdf\n\n#righttruncatableprimes #primes #numbertheory #math #maths\n\nhttps://media.mathstodon.xyz/media_attachments/files/113/678/168/843/568/111/original/28b74a197f166e95.jpg",
