Curiosities

1) Relation to multiples of 6: Every prime number greater than 3 is always one less or one more than a multiple of 6.
Example: `97151` is 1 less than `97152` (multiple of 6).

2) Square minus 1 divisible by 24: For every prime number greater than 3, if 1 is subtracted from its square, the result is always divisible by 24.
Example: The square of `97151` is `9438316801`. Subtracting 1, we get `9438316800`. Note that `9438316800 ÷ 24 = 393263200`.

3) Difference of squares: Every prime number greater than 2 can be expressed as the difference of the squares of two consecutive natural numbers.
Example: `97151 = 48576^2 - 48575^2 = 2359627776 - 2359530625`

4) Form `4n+1` or `4n-1`: Except for the number 2, all prime numbers follow the pattern `4n+1` or `4n-1`, where `n` is a natural number.
Example: `97151` is of the form `4n-1`, where `n = 24288`.
